Informant Mini (1590B build)

Build Rating

I managed to get this PCB into a 1590B with top jacks. Fantastic sound.

Tayda drill template I made is here if useful to anyone: Informant 1590B drill template

Note, if you try this you will need to use the same (or similar) hardware as the tolerances are slim. I used a compact 3PDT footswitch, Lumberg compact 1/4" jacks and the smaller variant of DC jack. For the first time, I was able to use full sized pots in a miniaturised build which was nice.

Next builds will be a Parentheses and a Spirit Box in 1590B form factors.

1590B is excellent, I love it - but I dug a little deeper - it sounds beautifully

Hey mate, that is amazing. Did you make the PCB?

ths,
Yes.
Same schematic as the original - just a few hours tracing the circuit board
Soon I will redesign this board for faster assembly - in PTH
