The build a cigar box amp information is a 12 page A5 sized booklet. It is based on buying a small amplifier kit from electronics dealers such as Maplin in the UK or Radio shack in the USA. You can also find similar items on Ebay. My booklet is aimed at beginners to electronics and gives tips on wiring and soldering and what else you might need to turn the kit into a cigar box amplifier. I also give email support for any questions you might have when building your amp.
Let me know when you've done it and send me your address details so I can post it.
