From the vendor
Clone of the vintage Alembic StratoBlaster boost. Board-mounted pot for minimal wiring and easy enclosure mounting. Opinion around the FuzzDog listening lab is that this gives a punchy presence rather than just a straight boost, and slightly accentuates the midrange. Could just be aural hallucinations... Board-mounted pot for minimal wiring and easy enclosure mounting. If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page. Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots. Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED. Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and can take a battery if desired with footswitch positioned 22mm higher, closer to the controls, in a 1590B. 1590A will not take a battery. Knobs are not included. Builds are only available with full kits including enclosure. Please choose appropriate knobs. Inspired by: Alembic Stratoblaster Difficulty: Easy PCB size: 25 x 23mm Knobs required: 1 Enclosure: 1590B, 1590A Direct-Connect compatible (4-way) Download INSTRUCTION PDF
