Title: Manta (Rub-a-dub 1590A Reverb) and Colibri Buffer (1590H!)
Post by: njkke on May 13, 2015, 01:47:03 PM
I want to share with you my last tetris works. Warning: there's a lot of porn inside!  ;D

The first one is a Rub-a-Dub reverb (by 1776 effects/JRM, thank you a lot), I've re-drawn the layout to fit in a 1590A. I think I've succeeded!  ;D

And the second one is a Mosfet Buffer in a 1590H box... I didn't know before I start but there's room for a 3PDT (in place of the DPDT toggle)!  :o

Crazy tight!!! I love big boxes generally, but these are very, very cool.

A feat, for sure!  Would there be enough room for low-profile electros, without having to bend them over?

Well, I don't know! I can't find 'em anywhere! I don't know the exact size of the low profile ones.

Nice work. I admire how close your jacks are!

As for the low profile electrolytic caps, if you're in Europe, musikding.de carries some. also uk-electronic.de

Haha, I've never bought them either.  Even most of my non-1590a builds have the "bent-electrolytics feature" as well!

I like the 1590h enclosure for favorite switches; wasn't sure you could fit jacks in there at all. Great job.

Great looking builds for sure. I too have been using those knobs on my builds that do not have much space between pots. They are my new favorite and I love that I can get them from Mouser.

I love what you did with the 1590H. The artwork is great also.

Great work on the reverb. You're braver than I. My 1590A verb was a single knober. I get my low pros from Paul. His stor is now linked at the top of the page, its DIYGP. He's in Australia.

Thank you guys for the kind words, and Midwayfair, maybe you already don't know that my efforts on 1590A are because of your really great 1590a pedals (I don't know if what I'm saying makes sense in english)

Thank you for the info.

Here's my Black Goat, in the last part you can hear it with the Manta.
