Show me some pedal kit makers.

While they are currently not in business, many online retailers still carry Build Your Own Clone (BYOC) kits. I've built several, and they are all fantastic.
 
Its a step beyond pedal kits, but I recently bought one of these:

It allows you to breadboard any circuit you want without soldering, but its very easy to plug your guitar into.

If you buy one of those, make an Electra circuit, and then fiddle around with component values, it'll open your eyes to how easy it is to make a pedal.

I've got a lot to learn. Right now I'm just following directions without a clue as to why. I've got to get at least the basics down. I imagine that's when the real fun begins.
 
The biggest advantage of breadboarding is it makes it a lot easier to learn through experimentation.

Sure you can mod a pcb, but with a breadboard you can swap out parts, add things that weren't there originally, and remove parts without ever having to break out a soldering iron. I do think there could be a, however niche, market for having a breadboard of a preexisting circuit.
 
Don't know why I didn't think about that. Who bought out Radio Shack? They probably have something too.
