125B Pedalboard

[Hogharry]

Looks great and I bet it all sounds great too. It's a real shame that 125Bs are a virtually extinct species in the UK. Unless anyone knows where to get them?

That looks fantastic! Clean, clean builds and very tidy hookups. Everything you need with a small carbon footprint.

If I could just stay focused long enough and stick with one sort of layout and box I might be able to do something like that this century...
Great looking board, i dig the tweed.

Great looking board! How do you supply it?

1590bs...? maybe?  They're basically a tall 1590b. 1590n1 also, they're a little bigger than the 125b.

You can do top mounted jacks in a standard 1590b though, you just have to be very careful.

This. I love this.

Wish I was confident enough to do top mounted jacks...

Oh damn...

I may just flatter you in the most extensive way and just duplicate your board! 

So... about that A board... spill it!

So you want to see the A board?    This is still a work in progress.  I need to find a pedal to go in the first position.  I am working on a Katana Boost or a LFO Wah to go there



No IO/Buffer on this one (maybe that will be first position?) -> Madbean Afterlife Compressor -> EP Booster (Vero) -> Minitaur (Pickdropper) -> Zendrive (Pickdropper) -> Madbean Runt -> THCustom Green Russian -> Madbean Smoothie -> Magnavibe (Vero) -> Delerium Tremolo (Pickdropper) -> Madbean Zero Point Micro II

Great looking board! How do you supply it?

I am just using a One-Spot to power it.  It goes into the IO/Buffer, and the power gets split from there.

And here are some previews of my large board that is still a work in progress.  The empty spot next to the volume pedal will hopefully someday be the Harbinger II

Lots of greatness there, Dan.  But you know that 1590a board really speaks to me.

Wow, I'm still amazed by the first board and now you throw these two at us? Not fair!

Musikding has them (http://www.musikding.de/Alu-Gehaeuse-125B), although its from Germany and you are most likely cheaper ordering from tayda in low quantities to circumvent customs.

Dan, you might consider connectors like these to make the 1590A board even tidier:

They work great as long as your jacks have approximately the same heigt! I bought a few straight connectors just to realize they wont work as all my jacks seem to have random heigts ^^

[dan.schumaker]

I tried some of those connectors first, but it just made things feel stiff.  I was worried about it moving the jacks a little too much, causing issues down the road.  These are squeezed together about as far as they go.

Any closer together with the  "A's" and wouldn't you run into interference issues with the switches on either side of the one you want to plunge?

All these boards are just superb.

Thanks Felix, I didn't realise Musikding had them, which is silly because I regularly buy things from them. Tayda is cheaper even with shipping and 20% VAT but the postal service charge so much for collecting the tax that Musikding is probably cheaper overall. It's always a problem with buying things for the US - the exchange rate is good for us in the UK but the post office rips us off!

The 125B board looks great (well they all do really).  Top mounted jacks for the win.  That's why everything I've been working on thus far is to be boxed in a 125B or 125BB.
