Title: Where to get terminals like on the board of original McCoy/v846's?
Post by: VintageCharlie on February 25, 2011, 07:39:00 PM
Dear forum members,

I'm about to put together a McCoy/v846 wah (got all parts together) and i was wondering where i can find the 5 small terminals (or turrets?) that make up the connections to the 5 wires on top of the board? I see this in all vintage vox wah pedals, but i have no clue how to find them as i don't know the proper designation, size, diameter, etc. Does anyone of you guys have these?

Thank you very much in advance!

Regards,

VintageCharlie

These are the same dimensions as the terminals in my Jen Crybaby.  Jen made the Vox wahs.

Can't be 100% sure, but it seems very likely that they would be 1mm diameter 10mm tall terminals in the Voxes too.

Thank you very much G!

I guess they should be the same - afaik cry baby and vox wah's were practically identical in regard to components.

Best regards,
