JD Sleep	Re: LBP-1 vs SHO There's nothing wrong with the way a well-built LPB-1 sounds. R.G. said its not very interesting, which is generally speaking true, but it boosts and it's pretty clean (to my ears) and it's a great project to do if you're new at building stompboxes (I think the AMZ minibooster sounds better, but it's got quite a few more parts). I think that maybe the one bad thing that comes out of this board is that one or two knowledgeable people will say something negative about a particular stompbox and then we all have the tendency to generally think it's a completely worthless total piece of junk after that. I've let that happen to me a time or two, but then I realized that I LIKE some of the stuff that gets criticized regularly around here. Some people are gonna like it, some people aren't, but don't let what R.G. said stop you from building an LPB-1 (it you haven't built one yet) or anything else you want to build.
