From the vendor
Now... we take a lot of marketing blurb with a pinch of salt around here, so when someone says they've managed to get the tonality and feel of the Dumble Steel String Singer amp into a pedal format we're skeptical to say the least. Having never been within shouting distance of that amp, we can't really say whether this circuit achieves that or not. What is does is gives you a clear, sparkly drive with a nice range and tone. Make it fat or thin it out with the filter control, and add as much punch as you like with the gain. As through-hole FETs are getting harder to come by we've designed the board to take those or SMD parts, which is what will be supplied with the kit. If you aren't confident with soldering those little fellas, steer clear. The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs. If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page. Kit includes: PCB, all components, hook-up wire, 3PDT footswitch for true bypass, jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, 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. Knobs are not included. Inspired by: Steel String Difficulty: Medium PCB size: 50 x 32mm Knobs required: 3 Enclosure: 1590B Power and Signal pads match the Direct Connect 3PDT Daughterboard Check Specials for powder-coated enclosure availability.
