Insert transistor into socket . Attach the wires , keeping them as short as possible relative to their destination . I used a bit of double-sided foam tape to mount the board directly to the pot . Again , keep wires short , we have limited space in the enclosure .
The old adage “ measure twice , cut once ” needs to be modified for the DIY set when it comes to 1590As . We will change that to “ measure thrice , cut once ” because accuracy is critical . If you ’ re using a pre-drilled enclosure , you ’ re in the clear , but take care if you drill your own .
• 2x ¼ ” mono input and output jacks . Lumberg jacks are the best for this , but anything lowprofile is critical
• 1x 3PDT latching footswitch
• 1x LED ; you can use whichever size you want but I recommend 3mm
• 1x LED bezel of the same size
• 1x knob of your choice , but make sure it won ’ t hang over the edges for aesthetic purposes
• 1x DC power jack
• Resistor for the LED ( I used 4.7k )
• Wire
STEP 4 :
