SMT Boost - LPB1 "Boost on a dime"

Difficulty: Intermediate

SMT Boost - LPB1 "Boost on a dime"


"Boost on a dime" SMT version of the classic boost, the LPB1. A good choice for those looking at getting into working with SMT. The resulting effect is also an excellent candidate for a 1590a build, or for an even smaller space (guitar cavity boost, etc). The footprint of this effect is incredibly small!

Dimensions: 20mm x 15mm
PCB Sizing: So small it will fit inside a matchbox :)

Kit Options
Please select above the kit options you would like included with your PCB

•   PCB Components
"PCB Components" includes all onboard components you need to build the "10 Min Dirt & Boost". Battery snap is included as well as 6 lenghts of wire and enough 0.3mm solder to build the effect. Component sizes for project are TO-236AB for the transistor and 0805 for the chips (resistors/caps). Also includes, LED, current limiting resistor ("medium" brightness) and plastic bezel for mounting the led to an enclosure.

•   9mm Potentiometer
Add a 9mm alpha metal shaft potentiometer to your kit!


•   Compact Mono Jacks (2 of)
"Compact Mono Jacks (2of)" include 2 Lumberg compact mono jacks with your kit. These jacks are small in size, a good choice for tight builds and beginners but can be used for any build. Please note you will need a stereo jack if you plan to power your effect with a battery. (Stereo jacks are available in the hardware section of this store).





•   Miniature DC Jack
These DC jacks are very small and are suitable for any build not using a battery / battery switching. Especially good for 1590a builds as they are very compact.



•   Knobs
These knobs are a high quality aluminium with a grooved circumference for a nice tactile feel and a full faced indicator line. They are small in diameter (13mm), can be used for any pot that has a 6.35mm shaft but will also fit the tight spacing needed for 1590a builds
