Addicted to solder....
Now don't get me wrong--I'm not "hanging out a sign" and going whole-hog into the effects pedal business, but I can now offer pre-built BYOC pedal kits on a limited basis. Availability will be determined by other time committments (family, work, church, projects), but I'm confident I can crank a pedal or two out on request, especially if you aren't in a big rush.
If you're not familiar with them, BuildYourOwnClone.com (BYOC) sells an extensive line of do-it-yourself effects pedal kits, most of which are "clones" of highly regarded vintage effects. All of them have been updated to use true mechanical bypass, and many offer additional features that the originals didn't have. The owner/master pedal guru at BYOC is Keith Vonderhulls, and his kits are absolutely first-rate in quality. His circuit boards are the best I've seen & used, and he uses high quality components throughout. I've built many of his pedals now, and have yet to come across one that was a disappointment. Here's a list of his current offerings:
The kits themselves range in price from $64 - $130 (the wah, due to its special pedal enclosure), with most in the $75 - $100 range as of this writing. If you see one that interests you and you lack either the will or the skill to build it yourself, shoot me a PM and I'll give you a price quote. I can provide just the fully assembled & tested pedal with no finishing (i.e. just a bare metal box), or a finished (painted & decaled) version for an additional $20 - $25. Modifications to the stock circuit would be extra, of course, since these take extra time and (usually) additional parts. In general, I can offer an assembled, tested and finished pedal for around $25 - $40 more than the BYOC kit price, depending upon the model. You won't beat that deal anywhere, believe me.
Purchase Terms: I require 50% down, with the balance due when the finished pedal is ready to ship. Shipping cost is extra, and I generally use US Priority Mail, insured & with delivery confirmation. International shipping just isn't worth the hassle, but I will ship to Canada. PayPal is preferred, but I'll also accept a US Postal Money Order. No personal checks, other types of money orders, credit cards, etc. And I reserve the right to decline orders at any time, for any reason.
If you want to see examples of my work, just look around in the Mods & Projects forum or THIS PAGE on my website. I take pride in doing top-notch work. Several fellow Fretters who have bought pedals from me can vouch for my work. If you've looked into hand-built "boutique" pedals before, you'll know that prices in the $250 - $400 range are the norm. Here's your chance to get that level of quality & performance at a FRACTION of that price range.
