Hard to tell for sure in the picture but it does look like there is powder coat on the inside of the enclosure. Are you sure at least one of your 1/4” jacks has a solid ground connection to the enclosure? If you haven’t already, I’d recommend sanding down to bear enclosure around the jack holes...

Butt rock for hair metal was also a thing in Salt Lake City.

Ah I see you said you’ve tried power supply. Have you tried putting a buffered pedal before it? Sometimes that can fix issues as well.

But in all seriousness. What are you using to power it? Power supplies are very often the culprit of noises like that. Does the pedal work at all if you play into it? Or does it just give those screechy noises and nothing else? Also, I can’t tell for certain, but the output jack does have a...

You have to turn the pedal off *before* the kettle reaches the boiling point.

Yeah, I really like the form factor. I fear that it has opened a can of worms for me, I've just ordered 10 more 1590b enclosures 😅. I used the same spacing between the top of the enclosure and the potentiometers that the 125b drill template uses. Same with the 3pdt, I just shortened up the...

Hey! I’m not seeing anything immediately obvious but there are maybe a few places that are suspect, it’s just hard to tell with the pictures. I can’t tell for sure, but it looks like there may be some places where there are joints with very little solder? You don’t want a ton but you want enough...

Rock on dude! Glad it’s working. Be sure to set the status of the thread to Solved and enjoy your new pedal! 🤘

This is the first time I've attempted to wrangle a PedalPCB pedal into a 1590b. It went off without a hitch! The RAT is my favorite overdrive/distortion circuit, especially when playing with my mod shop strat with the pure vintage '61 pickups in it, which is my go to on most days. I have a...

Oh man I’d actually love to try this one, I hadn’t even thought about the possibility. What size enclosure is that? Absolutely killer build!

Leaded or unleaded solder? For Leaded that’s probably hot enough. I’ve gone to fully unleaded and I run at 705F exclusively now. Where are you located? If you were somewhere relatively close to me I could send you a few 2N5088s to try in there. If not it’d probably be faster just to wait for...

A few things: what transistor are you using and are you 100% sure the pinout is correct? Are all 3 pins on your pot soldered? It kind of looks like maybe only pin 2 is? If you could also provide a pic of the other side of the board, that would also be helpful!

Does signal pass through just fine in bypass? Definitely do a thorough inspection of all the joints, looking for solder bridges that you can clean up, or cold joints you can reflow. A thorough pass through all the joints would definitely be helpful. What temp are you running your iron at and...

Of course it is, I don't think anyone is saying otherwise. I still think it's okay to assess the situation and voice your displeasure with it. I think you are going about it in a pragmatic way, and that's commendable. Being solutions-focused is as much as you can do. While opinions may not...

104% tariffs on china to go into effect at Midnight. This just keeps getting dumber and dumber.

Yeah it’s quite a bit more expensive to use the drill service but has still generally been worth it to me. I kinda doubt that will ever come back, it was almost too good to be true.

Allowing the president to have unilateral authority to set tariffs is a shitty system, especially when you’ve got a loose cannon in the White House.

This sounds like it's siiiick. Faceplate and enclosure also look amazing!

JFC 45%?! That's brutal. The "liberation day" branding is the weirdest shit ever. This sucks for everyone.

I’m definitely interested to follow along and see how this turns out. I have a stereo Walrus Julianna that is pretty cool but it only has one LFO. I’d definitely be interested to hear what stereo chorus with two LFOs and one of them inverted sounds like.
