I posted about this about a month back. Yes, shipping is high, but it is still a good price break if you buy by the case.

I agree on the shipping, but still.. if you need to restock your year supply it be totally worth it. Seems like they sell cheap 3dpt as well.. also toggle switches with leds in them :)
about the wahs.. the reviews seem allright... only one guy had some bad experience (with screw sizes mainly) , but he's based in Korea.. so he could just as well be a competitor ;)
do you have a link to the toggle with leds?...i like the idea of those. :icon_cool:
(if you mean the 12v car ones they are pretty big..)
you might be right about that:

There's an overall size image on the link.. .
they do sella lot of those things.. also the pushbuttons with leds.. but I agree it probably doesnt leave much space to put anything else in the box ;)
i've bought a lot of these from this supplier.
They are NOT the same quality as the american ones, the dimensions are a little different, the paint on them is not great at all. having said that if you don't need them to be like mammoth quality, they do do the job and are really reasonable. But don't expect the awesomeness you get from the american made enclosures.
Yes.....not quite "top shelf"! The rack provided will not fit most pots. you'll have to buy correct one. something else....but can't remember at the moment.
The tension/treadle connection is kinda shitty. it "works".....but if you use the rubber 'bumper' on the underside of the treadle....then its very difficult to access the tensioning screw!!
poor layout there. they work....but you have to tweek em.
Thanks for the feedback, guys!
+1 so buy with caution...cheers. 8)
For prototypes I have used some gray ABS plastic enclosures, relatively cheap for ~4€ a pop, easy drilling(drill small pilots and use the stepped bit in your hand to make holes) and can withstand a fat guitarist hardstomping it as well since the ABS is like 4mm thick.
Has anyone had any experience with these?

I bought some 1590BB's from them as well as a bunch of knobs, toggle switches, jacks and Soft Touch foot switches. The quality is similar to Tayda Electronics. One of the foot switches had a missing ring and one of the enclosures had a small dent on the front edge. Everything was packed pretty well too. I've spoken to someone else who has also had a fairly positive experience.
Would love to get a report on those wah enclosures! Looks similar to the Wah-sets MammothElectronics sell, only theirs are waaaay more expensive.
i'm fairly certain they are the same.
Do you think this wah enclosure would work for a volume control circuit? I have a box of hot pots that fit most wah enclosures
