Where to get the boxes?

[DaKurt]

Hello, I'm new here...
I decided to make my own beginner-effect, just for fun and to learn a little bit. I think I'm going to buy all the things I need to build the Dance Electra Distortion tomorrow, but where do I get there metal-boxes? I don't know if there is already a thread about it, but I didn't find one. So, do these boxes have a special name? where can I get them? (in Germany)...

thank's

Ask for a hammond 1590 series box, there's lots of 'em from tiny (1590A) to huge flat ones for things like amps (1590DD).

Start with the 1590BB sized box. Maybe it will be a little bigger than what you want, but it's the perfect size for a beginner.

Please check out the FAQ forum for more information. Read the Guitar Effects FAQ by GEO.

You can order the box from anyone that carries Hammond boxes. If you can't find any in Germany, write back and I will give you places you can order it in the US.
