Please read through the instructions completely before 

beginning this project.  This is one of our most difficult kits 

and it is a little different than other BYOC kits, so even if you 

are an experienced builder, take the time to look these 

instructions over...particularly the beginning of “populating 

the PCB” and “wiring the jacks, footswitch, and batterysnap”.
