Let me be the first to say:  WOW!   :shock:  :D  :o

very professional what with the cable ties and shrink tubing:)

any shots of the underside of the board?

is it a tubescreamer?

Hungeryhippie

thank you for your fast replys, yes indeed it it a tube screamer. The extra switches are for changing the resistor/cap bit in the feed back loop to make it a bit more bassier and a bit more gain, and chaning the diodes from standard TS to three one side and one on the other.

So its a TS with more and then more!

At this point, after all the various amazing t-shirt transfer graphics that have showed up here, I have to say I'm jaded.  What I AM impressed by, though, and which no one has mentioned, is that you made the whole damn case yourself.  Mahogany's nice to work with, isn't it?  And your foot has gotta love the sloped front.

The nice thing about DIY chassis is that you can make them to preferred size.  Could all of what's here have fit in a 1590BB?  Sure.  The circuit could easily fit onto a piece of perfboard 1/3 the size of what's shown (and I'll bet Francisco could squeeze it down to 25%!).  Tilt the box to mount the switches along the "long" side, stick the jacks in the right spot and away you go.

But would it be usable?  Would you be able to comfortably access individual footswitches in a gigging situation and know that you *wouldn't* accidentally hit the wrong one?  Probably not.  The custom case spaces the footswitches  where the user needs them...apart.  Nice work.

I hate you!  No, I hate myself because I'll freakin' NEVER be able to build something that looks that good!  That case is too beautiful to be wasted on a stupid TS!

Crikey!  Nice work!  I'm green with envy right down to my Irish toenails!

Great job!!!

Is that T-Shirt transfer? If so, how did you get it to bend over the edges?

what are those big blocks to the right of the IC?  My guess is they're diodes, because I dont see the diodes anywhere...??

Torchy

The big blocks look to me like poly-layer caps (Maplin specials ?  :wink: )

What kind of printing? That's not T-Shirt transfer is it?

That is one of the best boxes I have seen.

Congratulations!!!!!!
