Rehousing an effect

Hi all

Not sure where to post this, so @ped, I hope this is OK here...

I have a rather old and beaten Carl Martin Compressor that is in dire need of some TLC.  It needs to be rehoused into a plain, non-painted box and it probably needs a pot replacement for the gain.

But who does this sort of thing in the UK?  I had the box "trimmed" in order to fit a BOSS unit on top (in the days when I had LOTS of effects) and after years of gaffer tape over the dials, I think the gain pot went wonky - not sure actually.

 

Anyway - in advance, MANY thanks all you lovely low end people - stay CV free!!!

Mr. @GisserD has done 3D-printed plastic boxes for FI.

If you need a plain box, put that original C M box to the brake fluid for few days and you should have one paintless box at hand. There are accurate holes and everything in place.

Changing a pot is not a mission impossible. Ask any colleague nearby, or your friend with an iron.
