From the vendor
If you're itching for some Iommi-inspired sonic incantations akin to the early Sabbath years, wave your magic money-wand this way (yes, we know incantations are vocal, but ride with it... it sounds good).
Fronted by a germanium RangeMaster gain stage, backed up by some FET-fettling to get you some Laney Supergroup-style grunt. It's a true delight, and a nice alternative to the also-awesome Sabbra Cadabra.
FETs can be through-hole, or you can opt for the cheaper SMT versions if you want to save and can handle the tiny stuff.
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. Knobs are not included.
Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures. Please choose appropriate knobs.
