SDM Effects Loop . . . in a Peavey Butcher???

Yep!

Image

Hacked in here to test. Note the cardboard mount for the loop (rear right). UGH what a mess.

Image

Cleaned up getting ready for drilling.

Image

Closeup of the cardboard mount. I used this from the backside to determine WHERE to drill the mounting holes. I had to clear transformer leads, a side-mount chassis screw and had to account for height of the filter cap.

Image

Pilot holes drilled. I lined a second template up on the outside of the chassis with the cardboard cutout on the inside. I then taped it down to prevent movement.

Image

Holes drilled. Note tape covering tranny bell housing opening. Don't want any stray metal shavings in there.

Image

Cleaned up and dressed.

Image

Mounting to the pots.

Image

Items that I had to work around. It fit and wasn't too shoehorned in there.

Image

Template wouldn't fit so I made my own.

AHHHH . . . .

Another day at work heh heh heh. These loops are great!

- WOT
I smell tubes.
