Title: Grind Customs Tusk--dual gang pot question
Post by: Bret608 on October 25, 2021, 01:49:33 PM
Hi everyone--I'm putting the finishing touches on my first Klone using a Grind Customs Tusk board. I'm using the usual plastic pot covers from Small Bear to insulate the two 10kB pots. For the dual gang pot though, what have folks done to insulate that one (or does it need it)? I can already see there is a risk of having the board sit too close to the lid in the 1590b, what with all those 1uf electros in the right side of the PCB.

Thanks for your insight!

You could do what Ibanez, Boss and others do and cram a sheet of plastic in there. I have used transparency sheets for something like that.

Thanks! I think I've got just the thing--I'm going to cut a circle of out of this small plastic sleeve that held an eyeglass cleaning cloth. We get these every time my daughters visit the eye doctor.  :)
