Assembly Instructions
The
BOMB BOOST
is a classic pedal created by JHS,
makers of high-end effects pedals. Whenever JHS
adds a new pedal to their line, they retire an existing
design. This means great JHS pedals like the
BOMB BOOST
have become rare and sought-after. You can’t buy one, but
you can build yourself one—and it’s fun!
This
BOMB BOOST KIT
is the perfect entry into build-
ing your own pedals: an easy project without many parts.
If you’ve never assembled a pedal before, start right here!
This pedal is a 16dB JFET boost that will push a tube amp into
a clear, natural distortion. Use it in front of your overdrive,
distortion, and fuzz pedals for a thicker, more saturated tone.
Put it after your pedals to maintain your existing tone, but
make it louder (perfect for solos). Or keep it on all the time
to boost signal loss caused by long signal chains or by pedals
that aren’t true bypass.
The original
BOMB BOOST
was a
MINI
version, housed in a
mini-sized case. For this kit, we’ve resized the original circuit
to fit a standard enclosure.
