Nowadays, effects pedals have become quite expensive, with many costing over tens of thousands of yen. However, effects pedals were originally cheap and easy to make yourself. I'm sure every guitarist has thought at least once about trying to make their own effects pedal.
This book is the perfect book for beginners on how to make effects pedals.
The author is Akima Tsuneo, a guitarist who heads AKIMA & NEOS, an equipment brand trusted by many professional guitarists.
The scientific aspects have been kept to a minimum, and the book is designed for complete beginners, allowing anyone to create an effects pedal by following the photos and illustrations in order.
The sound quality has been given the stamp of approval by Akima! There will also be a corner where you can make your own mini amps and cables. Please give it a try!

Not as supportive as expected
Size: Large, Color: Multicolor
I had expected a more fitted and supportive sock. These were replacing some older ones that apparently UA doesn't make anymore. Next time I will look into a more running specific brand. After wearing them a bit more, the fit is loose, there isn't much compression or support, and the light gray looks unclean. They are soft, but that's about it.

My husband will only wear 100% cotton socks none of the spandex moisture control etc so these are hard to find in stores but he loves them and they last a while
