How We Build

Noise, rat's nest, tone suck.
Yeah, we fix that.

01

Signal Routing

We map your whole chain before we cut a single cable. Every pedal, every combination. Your tone stays clean from input to output.

02

Cable Work

Every run is labeled, laced, and built to handle hundreds of shows. When you open the back of this board, it makes sense.

03

Power & Protection

Isolated power rails kill the hum and buzz. That mystery noise you can never track down? We know where it lives.

04

Stage-Ready

Your board leaves here ready to plug in. We stress-test everything so you don’t think about it at the gig.

Kevin M.Touring Guitarist

From tangled mess to tour-ready

Came in with a board held together with zip ties and hope. We rebuilt it from scratch — isolated power, buffered signal path, and a switching system for going clean to lead with one tap.

Shannon G.Worship Leader

Silent stage, massive tone

Shannon's board was plagued by ground loops and hum. We redesigned the power section with fully isolated outputs and re-routed the signal chain. Dead silent on stage, massive tone out front.

Jeff C.Session Player

Studio precision, zero compromise

Jeff tracks for multiple artists and needed a board that covers everything from jazz cleans to modern high-gain. We built a dual-amp rig with isolated loops and studio-grade cabling throughout.

Don't take our word for it.

Straight from the people who gig on these boards every week.

Took it on a 3-week tour. Not a single issue. I used to carry a backup board — don't anymore.

Kevin M.

Had this hum I could never figure out. Jacob found it in like 10 minutes. Board's been dead quiet since.

Josh W.

Opened up the back and every cable was labeled and laced clean. I've never seen anyone do that.

Kaden C.

Setup used to take me 20 minutes at gigs. Now I uncase it and plug in. That alone was worth it.

Shane T.

Two years in and it still holds up. I've gigged this thing hard. Nothing's come loose, nothing buzzes.

The Signal Flow Cheat Sheet

One page. Signal chain order, buffer placement, power isolation. The same reference we keep on the bench during every build.

No spam. Just the cheat sheet.

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.

The same gear we use in every build.
