Ultimate "dirt pedal" kit from BYOC??

[duhvoodooman***]

It just might be! BYOC's new "Crown Jewel" kit goes on sale today, and it is quite the piece of work. I built a beta kit (same as the commercially available version) a couple of weeks ago, and this is the most versatile boost-overdrive-distortion pedal I've ever played through. The range of tones on tap through this thing is truly amazing. It also includes a very cool new feature for BYOC kits--six different modular boost circuits that simply plug into a couple of sockets on the main PCB. The kit comes with your choice of one boost module, and the others are available for $10 each (except the treble boost at $20 due to the costly germanium transistor in that circuit). Rather than trying to describe all of the features here, refer to the BYOC Crown Jewel product page for a full run-down. Available in 8 snazzy colors, including my personal favorite, the purple one shown below. Kit cost, including a painted & silkscreened enclosure, is $140. And if any of you are interested in getting one but you aren't a DIY'er.....well, you know who to send a PM to!
