Gudday all. Meet Bimmy, a dual channel Timmy with clean blend and input cap selection.
So, this is a commission build. The character artwork, who I believe is called "Dropkick", was supplied by the client, and he wanted silver knobs. Not sure that I'm a fan of the silver knobs as they're a bit hard to read but anyway. The other artwork was done by me.
So, the blend is supplied by Paulinthelabs' buffered Y-splitter, and I added a tone control to the clean blend via 10n to ground and a 100k pot acting as the resistor in that lowpass filter. Works a lot better on a guitar than on bass afaict.
The bass/guitar switch switches between 1uf and the stock 47n.
I had some massive issues wiring this up. As with the Crunchbox, to switch out gain pots you need to switch out pins 2 and 3 rather than just pin 1. When I finally got that working, the lead to vol 3 broke off the vero and I spent ages trying to fix and clean that up, just to find that the output (which is the master output) from pin 2 on the blend pot had come off.
It's a little wonky on the drilling, so I'll probably discount the balance owing (I always get 50% up front from internet randoms for custom builds). Still to tidy up a little inside with zip ties, but it's not bad.
Willy.
Pretty cool and the graphics are a hoot! What enclosure size is that?
That's an NS/XX from Tayda. Pretty nice size for dual builds, about the same size as two boss pedals side by side.
Pushed the pots into line, ziptied the guts.
No discount required I reckon.
Nice work
Cool, and good to see you are still building even if it's for others.

None was given. I was pretty happy with it.

Thanks. I'm not quite finished yet, still got a few in the production line to complete for myself. Probably have the same number for others though too...
