I found some instructions for an OD pedal in a guitar mag and thought it might be cool to give it a go and build my own. Could be an interesting future project.

So has anyone built their own OD / Fuzz pedals? How did it turn out? Was it worth the hassle or would you have been better off just shelling out the money for a "proper" one?

Cheers.

BYOC (build your own clone)
Great kits
Great results
Great prices
My BYOC Phaser (Script MXR Clone) is outstanding

Kit building is fun, also if you get good and learn you can buy broken ones and fix.
