Pedal Parts / DIY

High quality, radial leaded, aluminum electrolytic capacitors rated at 25VDC.

Depending on the manufacturer, this enclosure is usually very similar to a 125B.
Aluminum enclosure with countersunk lid that machine screws into drilled and tapped holes. Lap joint construction provides protection from dust and water. Vibra finished, no sharp edges.
Add 0.16" to enclosure depth for lid.

High quality non-latching relays from the Panasonic TQ series. These 5 volt relays are commonly used in pedals for true bypass switching. Relay switching can allow for a variety of options on pedal builds. Different footswitch modes can be obtained using the same momentary footswitch. Stereo switching using a standard footswitch is another possible option. Features:

• Compact low profile size
• Standard DIL spacing for easy PCB use and breadboard compatibility
• Non-Latching
• Single Coil
• 5V Coil Voltage

For a latching version, please see P-RP-TQ2-L-5V.

Prototyping circuit board with a standard long strip pattern where tracks run the length of the board. The long tracks are convenient for power and ground rails, and for signal buses. Strips can be cut as needed to make smaller tracks and circuit pads and the board has 0.1" hole spacing for DIP integrated circuits/ headers as well as other parts. Higher quality than traditional stripboard, the holes are drilled, not punched.

Original Cliff sealed and switched blue jack. Fully threaded. Many types of professional music equipment nowadays use high power components, and need to be cooled by fans. Fans draw in dust and pollutants which can adversely affect the contacts of conventional jacks, with exposed contacts. This sealed jack avoids possibility of contamination of contacts by means of a sealing cover over the top and bottom of the jack.

The BTSE-99FX Effect board provides 99 different digital audio effects to be used in many audio applications that require sound enhancement. Equipped with a superb quality digital effects processing engine which adds that extra punch needed to make sounds truly stand out. Applications:

• Guitar/ Keyboard/Bass amplifiers and combos
• Audio mixing consoles / Powered mixing consoles
• Stand -alone stereo effect units for studio and PA usage
• Effects pedals

Dunlop ECB003 US wallwart power supply. Barrel connector.

The SB400 Solderable PCB BreadBoard enables you to transfer your circuit and wires from a plug-in breadboard without recutting wires or changing your layout. The SB400 has the same pattern and spacing as a standard 400 connection point BB400 solderless plug-in breadboard. It has a standard 5-hole strip for each IC pin, just like solderless breadboards plus 4 power rails. However, it has the advantage that soldered joints provide a more reliable long-term connection than solderless contacts. The SB400 has four power rails like solderless breadboards, plus two bonus rails for power or signals. There are bonus two-hole pads along the centerline allowing DIL (dual in-line) headers to be used. BPS prototyping boards use high-quality FR4 glass epoxy PCBs for long life, with an anti-tarnish protective coating for easy soldering.
