Doepfer MBP25 Electronic with 1 Pedal

You do need some DIY skills to put together a case, and the steel front panel (sold seperately) is a must, and a shame it isn't bundled with the set as I can't imagine anyone doing without it. The other slight issue is that the midi sockets/cables are soldered to the board rather than plugged it - this means that you either have to desolder them or cut a slot for the cable when you mount the sockets on a panel. It would have been handy had there been a printed panel for the sockets as well as the main unit. Another oddity is the power socket is soldered to the board (unlike the midi sockets) so you need to be careful siting the main board to allow access to the power.

Pro: This is a great bit if kit and saves quite a lot of money over buying ready made. For me it just worked first time.

Con: You need reasonable DIY skills and it helps if you have various scrap material/bolts etc. to build a case. I managed to put one together in an afternoon, but if your DIY skills aren't up to much look elsewhere.
