i did the design in photoshop, then printed it on white laserjet decal paper, gave it 5 coats of Krylon matte clear, cut out the decal with an exacto knife, applied to the enclosure with micro set, gave it 6 more coats of clear, let it cure, wet sanded it with 800, then buffed it on a large...

I just finished this one and, IMO, it actually sounds pretty good. I went with a 1590B with relayed true bypass.

i think that you're right, although at least i did label "Handmade in USA by johnk" at the bottom of the enclosure.

yep. that's it.

in hindsight, I should have used my last name instead of OKKO bu it's too late now.

thanks! i prep and polish them myself.

thanks so much!

build doc coming any time soon? i'd like to see a drill template for the enclosure.

i just finished this one about an hour ago and i'm really diggin' it. I wanted to capture the look of the original (that way i can keep track of what they are). anyway, i'm very pleased on how it turned out and it sounds great with a bass.

Thankyou!

I just finished this one and i really dig it. i use mine with a bass so i did ONE mod to it, by replacing C1 (33nf) with a 68nf capacitor to allow more low end into the circuit. I installed sockets for R6 (3k3 resistor) but after trying it without the resistor, I'm just not going to install it...

I just finished this one. I did a couple of mods to it to make it more to my liking. First, the BA482 didoes being hard ti find, i used ECG 555A;'s (which were listed to be a suitable replacement). I also wanted a little bit more output and since i didn't have a 53K6 resistor, i used a 56K one...

thanks!

I'm assuming that it's the break before make rotary switch.

since there's no documentation yet. which type of rotary switch does it use? this one? : https://www.taydaelectronics.com/rotary-switch-2-pole-6-position-alpha-sr2612f.html (Break before make) or this one?"...

thanks. that's what i thought.

nice! i have an original and wish that it had a master volume. is the volume conrol mod difficult?

i wanted to ake my Black Ash as true to the orignal as possible by using the 'mojo' parts ( i.e. PIO caps & NOS carbon resistors) in the description and i think that it came out really nice:

I just finshed build the Motorizer and I really dig it. After it was completed, while testing it out of the enclosure, I wasn't very pleased with the sound of the distortion (flubby and ugly), especially at high gain settings, but for some unexplained reason, once mounted and completed, it...

i found it to be a bit thin sounding but i play bass, so i modified mine for a lot more low end and i think it sounds great with a bass now.
