I would recommend 4Site Electronics over Mammoth. Though I haven't tried Mammoth, the boxes from 4Site are the best I've used. The shipping price is better from 4Site also.

I set up a page with a list of my favorite suppliers and links 4Site is there: http://www.super-freq.com/parts/

I kind of assumed Mammoth was a 4site distributor, since all of their boxes are called "4S 125b", etc. Just a guess though. Do you think these are different boxes?

Mmmm, Chinese Small Bear!  I've started to see more and more strange chinese internet shops catering to tech hobbyists.  Often the only clue is nothing in the "about us" page.

i contacted mammoth and they are a retailer of alot of 4Site parts. Mammoth is located in Oklahoma. I might give em a shot. They have a ton of powder / pre-drilled options at a good price. I'll let you know what I find.

I haven't seen this one many places:

S1590BBT (4S1590BB 'Tall') Enclosure
price  $5.60
4.67" x 3.68" x  1.95" (119 x 94 x 49.5mm)

I like the extra headroom.

Does anyone else sell something at least 4.5" x 3.5" X 1.8" for no more than $6

thanx

I would recommend using 4Site. I bought 20 boxes a few weeks ago including shipping the boxes were about $4.80 each. Check the Parts page on my site. You have email them for a catalog then send an email with your order. The process is fairly painless.

I can't say enough good things about the boxes from 4Site. The finish great, the casting clean and crisp, the screws great quality with good sized threads. These are the best boxes I have used so far. If you'd like I could post some pictures.

Yes, I have heard 4site are high quality, but I don't believe they have the "tall" version of the 1590bb and I believe the minimum order is 5 or 10 items...

Coincidentally 4site is also in Oklahoma!

Has to be the same folks.

From what I gather,  Mammoth is an authorized retailer for 4Site so there must be some relation. I'm looking forward to getting some of the drilled 4S125-B boxes. They have a sweet 'vintage orange sparkle' that I haven't seen before. Let me know if you guys know anything else and I will do the same.

Utter facepalm though; they sell boxes drilled for two footswitches: with only one LED!

I'm not sure that the logic required to run a tricolour LED would be worth it compared to drilling myself...

just got my 1590BB 'orange sparkle' from mammoth. Awesome. Rehoused my Rat clone and used some of their aluminum control knobs. Freaking awesome and freaking cheap!

They shipped same day as well. Ordered on Thursday (shipped ground). Got to me this morning. Wired up the hardware and it looks like a $300 pedal.
