Same pedals. Completely different rig.
What changes when we get our hands on it.
Ryan H. — Gigging Guitarist
From shoebox to stage-proof
Ryan came to us with a board that was doing the job — barely. Tangled cables, daisy-chained power, and tone that disappeared by the third song. We stripped it down, rebuilt the signal path from scratch, isolated every power rail, and handed him back a rig that stays dead quiet no matter how loud the stage gets.

Tell us what you're working with. We'll tell you what it needs.
Three ways to get your tone right.
Depends on how hands-on you want to be.
Current Setup
Ride it out
Keep your current board as-is. No cost, but here's what you're living with.
$0
but it costs you tone
You know something's off.

The Gallery
500+ rigs. Here's a few.
Don't take our word for it.
Straight from the people who gig on these boards every week.
Three weeks on the road, not a single issue. I used to bring a backup board to every show. Don't anymore.
Kevin M.
had this hum for MONTHS. Jacob found it in like 10 min. dead quiet ever since
Josh W.
Opened up the back to swap a pedal and every single cable was labeled. Who does that?? This guy apparently.
Kaden C.
Setup used to take me 20 min. Now I just uncase and plug in. Solid work.
Shane T.
Two years of gigging. Nothing loose, nothing buzzes. That's all I wanted and that's what I got.
Robert B.
Sent my board in looking like a garage sale. Got it back looking like studio gear.
Marcus D.
the noise floor dropped so much I genuinely thought something was unplugged lol. nope just quiet now
Tyler R.
Jacob talked me OUT of buying 3 pedals I didn't need. Saved me like $600. Then built something way better with what I had. Rare to find someone who doesn't just try to upsell you.
Chris P.
200+ shows a year. Board hasn't let me down once.
Danny L.
My band thought I got a new amp. Nope. Same amp, just a proper signal chain now haha
Ethan G.
Clean cable routing, easy to swap pedals. Does what it should.
Nick F.
Was skeptical about the price honestly. After the first gig I got it. Worth every penny.
Brian K.
went from 15 min setup to under 2. my bandmates are jealous and two of them already hit up Jacob
Ryan H.
The isolated power supply alone fixed problems I'd been chasing for literally years. Wish I'd done this sooner.
Alex M.
Sound guy told me my tone has never been this consistent night to night. That's the board.
Devon W.
Flip it over. Every joint hand-soldered. You can see the craftsmanship. This isn't some factory assembly line thing.
Jordan S.
Sent a list of my pedals and a voice memo rambling about what I wanted tone-wise. He nailed it first try.
Mike T.
Built my own boards for 10 years. After seeing Jacob's work I'm done with DIY. Not even close.
Garrett H.
Had a question 6 months after the build. Response in 20 minutes on a Saturday. That kind of support doesn't exist anymore.
Sean O.
Half the weight, twice the tone. Big upgrade.
Patrick C.
Jacob rearranged my signal chain and I found sounds I didn't know my rig could make. Seriously.
Caleb J.
every cable is the exact right length. no excess, no tangles. it's like someone organized my brain
Leo R.
I used to dread setup at gigs. Now it's the easiest part of my night. Worth every dollar.
Trevor N.
Three tours. Two continents. Zero issues. That's the review.
Dustin A.
Shipped my board across the country, was nervous the whole time. Came back looking like it belongs in a museum. Plays like it too.
Aaron V.
My tech looked at the wiring and said "whoever did this actually gives a damn." Yep.
Will E.
22 pedals through a loop switcher. Jacob made it look simple. It plays even simpler.
Corey B.
Consultation alone was worth it. Found three issues I had no idea about.
Jesse M.
Got my board back and immediately booked another session for the backup rig. That good.
Blake F.
Spent thousands on gear over the years. This is hands down the single best investment I've made in my tone.
Omar K.
No more ground loops. No more hum. Just guitar, pedals, and silence between notes.
Drew P.
jacob spent an hour on the phone before I even committed to anything. no pressure at all. that told me everything I needed to know
Nate L.
Went from a board I was embarrassed to show other guitarists to one I actually want people to see.
Scott D.
Power isolation made my drives way tighter. Noticeable difference right away.
Ian W.
Built my first board with Jacob in 2019. Just sent him my third. Nobody else touches my rigs at this point.
Jared T.
Gigged with a rat's nest for five years. One build and I feel like a professional again.
Pete G.
Color-coded cables. Labeled jacks. Wiring diagram in the case. The attention to detail is insane.
Mitch S.
Worked with Jacob for years. The quality never dips. Every single board gets the same obsessive treatment.
Vince D.
Took this thing international. TSA, rough baggage handlers, the works. Not a scratch, not a rattle.
Liam R.
Cleaner swells, no pop between patches. Worship leader noticed day one.
Greg H.
Replaced three patch cables and my noise problem just... disappeared. Jacob knew exactly where to look.
Adam C.
Session guy here. Time is money. This board saves me time every single session. Pays for itself.
Tony A.
Pedal died mid-set. Because of how Jacob wired everything I just bypassed it and kept playing. No drama at all.
Keith N.
thought my amp was dying. turns out it was the board the whole time. jacob proved it in 5 minutes flat
Zach M.
Best customer service in the gear world. Bar none.
Jason E.
Board arrived with a handwritten note and a setup guide specific to MY rig. When does that ever happen?
Ray B.
Told my guitar group about Jacob. Three of them got builds. All happy. Not surprised.
Sam K.
Went from analog spaghetti to a clean MIDI-controlled rig. Completely changed how I play live.
Charlie W.
Was nervous shipping expensive pedals across the country. Jacob walked me through packing, sent updates along the way. Smooth process.
Derek F.
Took a bit longer than expected but the board itself is great. Sounds fantastic and the build quality is top notch.
Carson J.
Recording engineer. The noise floor improvement was measurable — we're talking 6dB quieter. That's significant.
Hunter W.
My board used to be the weak link. 50+ shows later it's the strongest part of my rig. Zero failures.
Jake L.
Three weeks on the road, not a single issue. I used to bring a backup board to every show. Don't anymore.

Jake L.
Got questions? We've got answers.
How long does a build take?
Most builds ship in 4-8 weeks depending on complexity and what parts we need to source. Touring emergency? We do rush builds too. Just let us know.
How much does a custom build cost?
Every rig is different, so every quote is different. Builds start from $2,000 and scale with complexity. Your consultation is free — we'll walk through what you need and give you a straight answer.
What if something breaks?
We stand behind our work. If something goes wrong with the build, reach out and we'll figure it out with you. We're not going to leave you hanging.
Do I need to ship my board to you?
Most clients do, yeah. We're in Houston, TX. We'll send you a shipping label and walk you through packing it safe. Local? Drop it off anytime.
What is included in the free consultation?
We talk through your rig, your signal chain, what's bugging you, and what you want it to do. Then we put together a game plan and a quote. No pressure, no obligation.
Do you build MIDI switching systems and audio loops?
Absolutely. That's actually where things get really fun. We build full MIDI-controlled rigs with loop switchers, preset routing, the whole deal.
