1590a Timmy ... it can be done!

Had an enquiry to see if I could build a 1590a Timmy circuit a couple of weeks ago. Never turned into an order, but that's OK, the gauntlet had been thrown down anyway.

Turns out it can be done, with 9mm pots, some very careful planning in CAD software and a fair amount of fiddly wiring.

So here it is - the full Timmy circuit - 4 pots and a 3-way switch in a 1590a enclosure. Yep, it's tweed again, but I had some fabric left and I like the name "Twimmy" so that's that.

Now what else could I try fit in a 1590a ...

Impressive!

How do you do the metal name plates?

Printable waterslide transfer paper onto, erm, metal.

What other non-tweed cool finishes could you do with that enclosure? I love it!

Never mind what it sounds like, that's a lovely bit of soldering.

Pretty much any finish you like - drop me a message if you have something in mind

I was so wowed I accidentally wowed jonnygreentrees. Impressive work. (the Twimmy that is, not my inability to correctly wow)

Thank you, I will. Got a long journey in the morning to think about it! :-)

How much would you be looking at for something like this?

I could probably let this one go for £100 - although it does look mighty fine on my pedal board ...

really enjoying my Timmy clone at the moment too, much wider gain range than I expected and the toggle switch gives you a massive range of sounds too
