If not too late, I'm interested in one. Question - is it possible to have bearfoot assemble the pedal? Also, how does this compare to the baby pink booster?

I know, I know...but my hands are tied up with the six strings of my guitar. I don't even own a solder gun. I'd rather leave that to the pros for good reason.

EVERY guitarist should know how to solder. I guess if I was in a platinum band and could afford a 24/7 guitar tech that would suffice ... but my guess is that no one starts at the top; therefore, EVERY guitarist should learn to solder.

Cheers!

haha, see it as a kind of waitlist. You can't have the pedal until you learn how to solder ;)

C'mon Pinegreen, this looks like a good one to cut your teeth on! :laughing7 hopefully it will be my first build too and I am certain there is plenty of help to be had here for us noobs :thumbup:
