Here is a MOTM-490 kit when it arrives. Everything is included right down to the right solder.
The MOTM-490 PCB is beautiful. It is a joy to solder these high quality PCBs. Here is mine now populated with resistors.
Here we see the PCB once the organic solder is complete. The board wash leaves it flux free.
Here the PCB soldering is complete. It is now time to attach it to the bracket and front panel.
But, before attaching the PCB and bracket to the panel, the front panel must be prepared by attaching the jacks.
The new bracket design is simple to attach. The bracket and front panel are sandwiched between the front and rear pot nuts.
Wire the jacks, install the knobs, and you’re done.
Here’s the front panel when finished. That’s a lot of filter packed into a small package. J
