I've been playing guitar since I was 15 and I don't think I've ever had a ts 808. so I etched up the os board and put it in a old beat up pro co. rat enclosure. wired up with a clickless relay bypass.

This is such a great build! I love the enclosure, the decal on the side ;)
nice!!
ive got one of these boards waiting to go..
what clipping options have you got there?
and how does it sound!
That's great! Really cool build! I love those Vishay-Dale "sausage" resistors 8)
yeah I'm phasing the dales in. I really like the sturdy leads on em, they're great to use as jumpers and making your own pcb mounted pots. the dales are more expensive, but I think they are worth it. I can find some good deals in bulk on ebay.

I've got bat 41's and on the switch I've got a couple fets and a ma856
Really good looking build! Can you tell me more about your "clickless relay bypass" I am really interested in this.
Very classy!

Hell yea! Thats a great looking build. You must have bought a powdercoat kit to get that awesome finish.
I'll admit I've never played a TS or variation ever... :(
I've built a ts808 kit from muzikding.de (my 2nd build ever) and I'm not pleased with it. Everything's poor quality inside and it stopped working after 2 or 3 hours of playing. The kit costs 30$ so heh what to expect? I think I'll give it another chance and try madbean's osp project, I'll put it in the old enclosure.

nope that's enamel paint w- clearcoat. considering getting into powder coating though. I'm sick of chipping paint.
Love the look of this pedal, Great job! Do I spot a tasty polystyrene cap in there?

Something like this maybe? http://www.muzique.com/schem/bypass.htm (http://www.muzique.com/schem/bypass.htm)
that's the ticket. make sure you discharge any static before handling the processor they are easy to ruin if handled improperly. there is a waning on his website somewhere. I've blown a couple. :-\
