BYOC is shutting down

[culturejam]

End of an era, lads. I built my first ever pedal in 2006 from a BYOC kit (Distortion + clone). And the forum was pretty much the nicest place you could hope to find for building pedals. I hope Keith and family are moving on to something better for them.

I saw the news on reddit, but apparently they sent out an email announcement, along with a 40% off coupon code. So maybe take advantage of the sale and send off BYOC in style?

Damn. It's hard to put into words what I owe them considering where it has and still is taking me in this hobby. I wondered why a lot of their stuff was out of stock for so long.

40% off EVERYTHING!
Enter Code:
GOODBYEBYOC

Hopefully it's okay I post it for anyone not on the email list.

Sad to see them go

The first thing I ever built was the BYOC "confidence builder" which was basically a switch and a pot.  Doesn't really do anything but served its purpose and was a great idea for a kit

Very sad to hear this news. BYOC was a pioneer in the diy pedal community.

I too got my start with a confidence booster and an opticomp. I was just looking for a compressor not a hobby.

My first builds also from BYOC, couple of differant fuzz pedals. I also built one of the tube amp kits. I also found out about Madbean and Brian on that forum. sad day

I started with BYOC (and GGG) kits in 2007. I think I've built all the things from both. I wish Keith and his clan well, too.

what a month of heartbreak.

Damn, my first build was also a BYOC Reverb

Sad. I think GGG was my first build but I did some on BYOC. Like Culturejam, I think I starting building kits around that time.
