Take a look and tell us what you think.  Or build one.

Have you built one?

[Fret Wire]

Nope...no interest in that ckt. I like the MicroAmp and Fetzer Valve, thats as far as my taste in boosters go. It does offer tone controls, which makes it more versatile than most boosters. The real ones cost a lot, so if you want one, build it. Nothing special inside.

It's not even a FET booster.  The FET is set up as a basic buffer and the opamps do the boosting.  It does sound pretty good though, I built one using the layout at ustomp.com
