With the Folk Projects, they are known to be kits and not something simply purchased. There is a different kind of pride in that.


I agree, I think the "Cherry Buster" sounds really cool, but love the traditional "Folk Boost" idea.

Also, I have never done more than a few minor Boss Mods, not all successful... :oops: How difficult is one of these to put together?

I think a cherry burst might be appropriate even as an inside joke/reference to the "cherry buster" but still labeled as a "Folk Boost".

Ditto. 2 boxes if there are leftovers.

And of its folk it should still be buster IMO since its a booster and buffer

I'd like one as well if I am not too late.

We are still on a road trip to see my Dad since he couldnt come out to Colorado due to chemo :cry:

I'd vote for folk fuzz with cherry burst finish. Make that sparkly cherry burst finish.
