RANGEMASTER KIT
This Rangemaster Kit allows the builder to construct an authentic high-quality Rangemaster Treble-Boost Unit.
I’ve sourced all the hard-to-find components so that you can enjoy a hassle-free build. The kit includes a custom-made enclosure, carbon comp resistors, Cliff UK input jack, Switchcraft jack plug, premium axial electrolytic capacitors and a high-quality UK made Bakelite control knob. The Ge transistor is selected to work with the included components and sound great!
Includes a wiring diagram, photos and assembly guidance notes (see note below).

Please note: Although not a difficult build, some aptitude with mechanical and electronic assembly is required to successfully build this kit. Due to time constraints, I cannot provide step-by-step guidance or troubleshoot non-working builds. Some basic tools are required, including a soldering iron, screwdriver, wire strippers, etc. The ability to solder properly and follow the wiring diagram is essential.
