I Think everyone should have at least one Cigar Box Amp. Trying to learn to make my own boards now.

Here's the original Graycliff amp (before I added black/silver grill cloth):

Very nice, Adam! I built my first CBA using a trapezoid-shaped Graycliff box and a CBGitty circuit. Then I got one of the guitarfuel MAH3 set-ups and ended up mounting it into a Line6 cabinet that had fried its electronics. I really like both of them! I'll try to find pics (although both are in my collection of pictures here, somewhere!)

Poorness Studios....When I saw yours, I seriously laughed at the similarities.  In this one, someone got me a CB Gitty amp kit which is what I installed, I have recently been messing around with Ruby Amp variations (LM386 ) trying to figure out how to build my own boards as well.  If I figure it out and find a nice sound, Ill let you know.

Holy cow! That looks a lot like my last CBA build.

I love building electronic projects so I'd like to build my own boards too. I shouldn't be too difficult, but it would take some prototyping. What chip did you end up using?
