Easy to do and very funny. I recommend it to be done as the first project.

5 from 5 Perfect

It was the first project for me and I can say that it was very simple. I purchased a second kit for a diy project for a belt or strap module . The electronics are easy the only thing is finding an appropriate enclosure.

5 from 5 Excellent!

Thank you Musikding.

What a really great value for money kit! A really easy build. A great introduction to DIY pedal kits for any guitarist. I purchased the kit along with the undrilled case and less than 24 hours later (including sleep). I have a very professional looking unit fully sprayed with Decals. The variable boost really pushes the higher frequencies really well. I wish learning to play as well as Mr May was as simple!

5 from 5 Great Kit

My first self-build. Really straightforward to build with nice clear instructions. All worked first time. Very quiet with both battery and isolated power supply. Sounds excellent (VOX AC15), exactly as expected. Highly recommended as both a first build, but also if you want a great sounding, simple treble booster.

5 from 5 LA PEDALE A POSSEDER

Excellent kit composants dune grande qualité, circuit imprimé au top très soigné. Les composants sont parfaitement identifiés dans des sachets suivant leur catégories. Les documents techniques sont clairs et bien exploitables. Sans être électronicien, juste du soin et de la patience le résultat est formidable et cerise sur le gâteau la pédale fonctionne du premier coup et très bien en plus. Certes vous ne jouerez pas comme Brian May parce que vous avez une May, mais avoir le son ça aide grandement pour apprendre un morceau. Sur ma Strat Us comme ma Red ça fonctionne du feu de Dieu. A 34,00 euros frais de port compris ce serait dommage de sen priver. Je recommande vous pouvez acheter les yeux fermés.
