Junior Genius Kits are built for experimentation, learning and fun! Experience the joy of seeing your first LED light up. The Blinky Lights Kit leads you through 10 core activities, from a simple LED circuit up to more advanced transistor LED blinky light circuits, using standard parts on a real-world breadboard. Learn about voltage and current by using LEDs, resistors, capacitors and transistors. You'll be able to build circuits using a schematic diagram, and there's plenty of help to get you there. Simple examples make it easy to grasp the basics and 'What's Happening' and 'Things To Try' sections encourage you to dig deeper. You will get valuable assembly and troubleshooting experience as you learn to use a great experimentation tool, the solderless breadboard. Real hands-on experience means greater educational value. This next-generation science kit doesn’t seal the parts into simplified plastic blocks.

Snubber parts kit for circuits. Used to build a "snubber circuit" to remove unwanted high frequencies and high voltages resulting from output transformer ringing in a guitar amplifier, without the "brick wall" effect of using diodes.

The Original Overdrive! The OD808 is often imitated but never matched! Identical to the 1970s circuit and featuring the JRC4558 IC chip, it offers warm, smooth, transparent overdrive that'll make your rig scream! The OD808's dynamically responsive circuitry reacts precisely to individual playing styles, letting the true voice of any instrument or artist shine through. Don't settle for copies when you can have the original. The OD808 Reissue offers up all the warm, creamy, organic overdrive as the original and then some. Never one to rest on their laurels, Maxon has tweaked the current version ever so slightly to reduce noise level while retaining the legendary “808" tone. The OD808 is the perfect pedal for adding smooth, tube-like overdrive to any clean amp – use it as a secondary dirt channel to beef up a song's chorus section, or keep it on all the time for the crunchy tone that has defined rock and roll.

The K-GMOD-3L is a vintage style wiring kit for Les Paul guitars. This version comes with long bushing pots for carved top Les Paul’s. Use this kit to upgrade your current Les Paul electronics to high quality parts. This kit also includes a treble bleed mod for the volume pots to enhance clarity with lower settings and comes with detailed instructions and all the parts you need to make your modification.

Improved circuitry featuring the JRC4558 IC yields the ultra-smooth, creamy, dynamic overdrive so sought after by guitarists.
Overdrive and output level controls adjust the intensity of overdrive and output volume, while the Hi Boost/Hi Cut Tone control adjusts the brightness from warm and smooth to sizzling hot.
While the M-OD808 may have been the first overdrive circuit of its kind, it was the OD-9 that cemented this sound in the history of Rock & Roll guitar. Looking at the OD-9's circuit, you'll realize that this is not some redesign being cleverly marketed as a reissue – this is THE original OD-9 (TS-9) circuit, yet with the addition of true bypass switching.

The K-GMOD-1 is a vintage style wiring kit for Telecaster guitars. Use this kit to upgrade your current Tele electronics to high quality parts. This kit also includes a treble bleed mod for the volume pot to enhance clarity with lower settings and comes with detailed instructions and all the parts you need to make your modification.

The K-GMOD-5 is a vintage style wiring kit for Les Paul toggle switches and output jacks. Use this kit to upgrade your current Les Paul switch and jack to high quality parts.

The TWA Flyboys FB-03 is a massive sounding delay pedal in a tiny package. This pedal takes you from the snappiest slapback sounds to big spacious delays with over 600 milliseconds of delay time. The bright and articulate delay signal keeps the mix crisp and transparent while the repeats add a touch of modulation for a warm tape like sound as the signal decays. The FB-03 Echo can go from one repeat to infinite repeats putting the pedal into self oscillation for wild feedback effects. The FB-03 Echo also features a true bypass footswitch and comes with a DC jack to battery clip converter cable.

Shape your sound with the Tone Attack. 12 o'clock settings give an approximate unity gain with the pedal. Rotate the treble or bass knob counterclockwise to cut the corresponding frequencies. Rotate these same knobs clockwise to boost the frequency bands. The master boost knob can be used to attenuate your signal or push your tone to screaming loud volumes. MOD® Kits are designed to give both novice and experienced musicians the opportunity to build their own amps and effects pedals. All kits come with easy to follow instructions and use point to point wiring. Pre-drilled enclosure and all parts are included. All you need to provide are hand tools, a soldering iron and solder. The Tone Attack operates on a 9V battery or AC adapter, which is not included. The Godlyke 9-volt adapter (M-PAS-S) may be purchased separately to power your new pedal.
