as I am nearly out of room on my pedaltrain, and I can't live without a serendipity. I used my last fabbed pcb to make one in a 1590a. I modified the board slightly so it wouldn't get hung up in the enclosure. I used 2 9mm pots and 2 16mm pots for the controls and skipped any sockets for components to save vertical space. I used adhesive backed foam to secure the board and insulate the exposed ground plane. finished in deep blue with prismatic flake clear.

Wicked....! That's ;\like putting a four master ship into a tiny bottle....
:o Fantastico!
That's epic. I've been wanting to try a 4 knob 1590A build with those 9mm pots. You have given me the inspiration ;D
that hurts my brain in a good way
Thats freaky... :o
Must have been a real tricky job, nice work!

Seriously, me too. I am going to try and build my neutrino into a 1590a. Great job. Serious packing skills.
I say old chap, That is absolutely spiffing.
Nice work, I would've never thought that was possible.

Dude...IN...credible...
This is quite an accomplishment my friend. Fantastic job all over!

Looks like it doesn't get anymore perfect fitting than that! I'm sure your pedalboard looks awesome now.
Ooo, sparkles!! I want some 'sparkley' pedals too. :)
Love this! I'm looking intobuilding as many 1590a pedals as possible. I'd lov'e to build my serendipity into one like this. Which size pots did you use fir which ones? Any reason you didn't just use all 9mms?

can't remember off hand. they were staggered though. I did'nt have every value in 9mm. you should be able to fit 4 16mm pots if you drill accurately. there is enough room. the one I did last year didn't use 9mm pots. measure twice. and drill pilot holes. and you definately want to use a drill press and a sharp bit.
