The Plus - Distortion kit

Easy to built. Good for starters. And the sound is amazing. I didnt expect it to be this good for such a low price, I was very surprised. So really recommend this.

Practically noiseless distortion-pedal. Goes from almost overdrive-ish to full distortion. Not as much sustain as the big muff, but great sound.

Very easy and fast to make pedal but with a great result.
Comptley noisless it gives a big range of distortion from blues cruchy to metal distortion.
Works great even on a crunch or lead channel, giving more sustain and fatting up the sound.

im impressed!

Plenty of space on the board made this very easy to solder, worked first time and Im a novice pedal builder.

Personally I sneaked in a couple of germanium diodes (1n270) in series with supplied silicon ones, the sound is phenomenal, great range on the distortion control, lovely fat lead tone, and somehow Im also getting great crunchy chords without losing definition even on the most complex chords.

Was the first kit I built on my own, was very funny and easy. It tooks a sunday afternoon to be completed and was my first experience with solder and components... so, it means its very easy at all!
The result is ok. I never played a real Distortion+, so I cannot compare, but this pedal sounds quitly good until 12 oclock... at higher gain it became very very harsh. Maybe Ill mod it in the future, there are many tutorial on the web.
Anyway, I start using it as boost on my dirty channel on the valve amp and in this way works great. Compression and sustain are there... very nice.

The soldering is easy and straightforward, as it is the wiring. A perfect beginners project. It took me an afternoon to complete it. The sound is amazing with my vox a 15, great presence and definition of the sound. A bit too harsh when cranked but I dont like too much Distortion anyway. Together with the ts9 makes an amazing combo.

1st attempt ever for me to make an effect pedal, though I started building buffers and blenders, this kit is 100% beginner-proof. PCB is great, soldering job was easy and the components are good quality. Maybe the jacks are a bit cheap, but they do the job. It took me an afternoon to complete it, including the drilling and mounting time. Great kit for the price, the distortion effect is really good and offers a nice gain for blues and heavy music with plenty of good lows. Maiden and Black Sabbath fans, come and get this kit ! I have a lot of pleasure playing the unit, which works great on my ENGL amp and sweetly drives my 1st gain stages (The Plus sounds better than the amps crunch channel). Feels even better than my TS-9 for boosting ! Thanks, Musikding ! Ill come get some other kits again for sure !
