> This kit is a monster!  I haven't assembled anything from a kit or  
> PCB that was bigger.  With 2
> PCBs, a full 3U FP, and mutiple connections to 2 reverb tanks it is  
> amazing.  The amount of work
> it takes to bring all of the parts together is also amazing.  I  
> think I purchased parts from
> around 8 different vendors--and it was a hassle to say the least.   
> I have been working on this
> project for almost a year.  With 2 exceptions, everything is in  
> house and bagged up ready to ship.
>  I have the Spectrol pots on order and they are due to arrive in  
> December (not that far away
> actually).  And once I have all of the orders and requests for  
> reverb tank types, I will place
> that order.  I have ordered a fair number of tanks from Accutronics  
> in the past and they have a
> very good turn around time.
>
> You will have 2 options for shipping (at no additional cost):  1.   
> I will ship the kit once the
> reverb tanks arrive and then ship the pots once they arrive.  or  
> 2.  I will ship everything when
> the pots arrive in December.
>
> Payment in full can be made via Postal Money Order (preferred),  
> Paypal or personal check (drawn
> off of US bank).
>
> If you would like to purchase a kit, email me for availability and  
> I will also give you the
> options for the reverb tank.

> I am not selling these to make money.  I just divided the parts  
> costs evenly among the kits and
> assembled module.  I am offering these a service to the modular  
> community to make things a little
> easier and more enjoyable for people.  I am providing the parts for  
> the module.  I am not an
> engineer and I am not the designer.  If I supply the wrong part, I  
> will replace it free of charge.
>  If you need help assembling or troubleshooting the module, you  
> will need to contact the designer,
> Scott Juskiw, for assistance.
>
> This is my 2nd kit to sell and my second assembled module, so I  
> have learned a lot.  All items
> individually packaged (very similar to MOTM).
>
> I also have 1 assembled module for sale.  The PCBs are completely  
> assembled, the reverbs tanks are
> in-house and prepped; it is just waiting for me to drill the FP  
> which arrived today and for the
> Spectrol pots to arrive.  I can obtain the Spectrol pots now, but  
> the cost would go up about $50.
> This has a few parts that have been upgraded from what Scott specs  
> in his BOM.  In particular all
> Bourns trim pots have been used throughout to match the MOTM  
> standard.  I don't know if you will
> see another one of these for sale, so this is a great deal for  
> either the non-kit builder or
> someone that doesn't have the time right now to assemble a kit.   
> The cost shipped is US$725.
