Members Gibson155 Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 I stripped out the cheap plastic on my Dano Fish 'n Chips and it won't stay closed. Naturally, I want to rehouse it but I don't know where I can find enclosures designed for this. Any help? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members timeforheroes Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 not gonna happen..... well, its gonna be so hard to find an enclosure that allows easy access to the sliders... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! any mxr size enclosure will work, but the problem is drilling out the strips for the faders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hooya Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 I posted this same question 'cause I want to rehouse mine. Kind of out of luck. BYOC has a 7 band EQ, but I don't think you can get the enclosure separately, not that it'd likely fit anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members matterday Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 Just get another one. It's not like it'd break the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members houseofglass21 Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 Send it back to Danelectro and they'll send you a new one for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Demian03 Posted December 31, 2008 Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 yeah there like 15$ just buy a new one and glue/duct tape it together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Hammond box of your choice + local machine shop + a few bucks = case with slots machined into it. The trick would be finding a local machine shop who can / will do such a relatively simple job (from their perspective) for you for cheap bucks. But chances are, it's still going to cost as much as, if not more than the cost of a whole new pedal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gibson155 Posted December 31, 2008 Author Members Share Posted December 31, 2008 I'm seriously thinking about using a dremel tool to route some channels into an enclosure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gibson155 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 2, 2009 I pulled out the guts today. I'm going to place a piece of paper over the plastic enclosure to get the pattern for transfer to a steel enclosure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TomCTC Posted January 2, 2009 Members Share Posted January 2, 2009 Keep us posted...with pics! +1 A glossy white, unmarked metal enclosure with those sliders sticking out the front would be a sexy little EQ box. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
