I keep building these because it is a fabulous circuit. When I saw @kungpow! was able to squeeze this into a 1590b I had to give it a try. There are a lot of holes in this enclosure and no layout guide so I had to think about how to lay it out. And my choices made it a bit crowded inside the enclosure near the footswitch... but it all works so beautifully to make Timmyesque sounds.
My first time using a water slide decal. I am sure I will get better at it. I will also hope to improve on my 1590b interior layout next time. I did not need off-board jacks, I did narrow the distance between the upper pots and the lower by small amount,
I used a file and sandpaper to trim the width of the board. I also bent the ECs and the two 820NFs so that it all fits. I am partial to MXR style enclosures so that is another inspiration for the power and side jacks. I have never had to throw an enclosure away and this one had so damn many holes I did slightly goof - I put the input a tiny bit too close to the D.C. jack and I could have moved this whole thing up toward the top. Low profile footswitch, on board pots, Taiway switches.
The other Timmys that I have built, I used a few “close enough” values. This time I used the exact values called for in the build docs. Let me tell you the secret to magical tone. I put a chop shop in front of this pedal and found my tone. It is so loud!!!!!!!
