Title: Hammond 1590B3 ?! new enclosure sizes? Or have I been out the game too long....?
Post by: LaceSensor on September 02, 2020, 08:11:05 PM
Anyone tried the (new to me) Hammond 1590B3 series enclosures?
I was searching for some new boxes and need 125b really, but found these
https://www.rapidonline.com/Catalogue/Search?Query=stomp%20box%201590b3

About 10mm wider, a tiny bit shorter maybe but about as tall.
Also, they come in nice powder coats like the rest of their line of more normal sizes...

They also do one thats kinda like a 1590a but a bit bigger called 1590G2

And a taller 1590b called the 1590BS

These all look pretty cool, gonna try the top one at least :)

The links don't actually take you to the products. I think maybe you need to log in or something.

I knew about the taller 1590b, I remember reading something about it and the VFE stuff. There is a taller 1590a now as well.

There is also the 1590B2.  Same footprint as the 1590B and 1590BS, but with a height in between.  Brian has started including drill templates for them in build docs.  I'm working through a Slow Loris build in one now, in fact.

works for me without a login

sometimes it has a pop up asking what type of client you are, just pick any random one

The B3 does look cool! And Mouser has them for just a little over $8, unpainted anyway. Could be a good match for one of my vero fuzz projects.
