Comments about Mod Kits DIY The Piledriver Power Boost Effects Pedal Kit:
It's not a bad pedal if you know how to solder and build. It's very basic, not a huge range but thats not all that bad. It has no LED but you can Add one. There's no option for a 9V adaptor so it's only battery power unless you have a 9V plug laying around. The Box is huge and unnecessary, I fit everything into a standard electrical box.
Very easy to put together if you know how to solder.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Mod Kits DIY The Piledriver Power Boost Effects Pedal Kit:
This kit was super easy to put together, and sounds great with no noise. I personally would have preferred at least an option for an AC adapter, but the circuit was simple enough to modify it to fit my needs. The instructions were very straight forward and easy to follow, and the diagrams are clear and simple to understand. This is a great introduction to building pedals, and for the price, I might buy a couple more of these to use as the start of my own circuit designs.
It's a clean boost, not a lot of features needed here. Since it's intended to be run on a battery, I assume there is no LED to conserve power, in addition to simplifying the circuit by not including it. I went ahead and wired it up for use with a power supply instead of a battery, and it works very well that way, but I have some experience with electronics so I can't speak to how simple that would be for true beginners.
Everything seems to be of decent quality, especially for the price. I might experiment with a different potentiometer in the future, though. The included pot seems to only affect the level once you get up past half-way, but that might just be a matter of personal preference.
It's a pedal for a price comperable to what I've seen people charging for just an enclosure this size. You can't beat it for an entry into the world of DIY effects pedals.
