G'day Robert,

I built the BassAce as one of my first attempts at sDIY, and I am 
very happy with. It has a hot sound, its pretty easy to mod, and the 
CV's are all V/oct.

BUT - it is a very basic kit. There is very little in the way of 
instructions (just parts list, schematic and tuning procedure) and 
you will probably have to nut out a few small problems to get it 
working 100%.

I havent built the fatman, but I have built other PAIA kits, and can 
say that their instructions are VERY clear, step by step, very good 
for a beginner. And there are a lot of mods for the Fatman on the web.

If you dont mind the learning curve I would recommend the BassAce.

hope this helps,
Paul
