It took me 2 days to complete the build, working between my other responsibilities over a weekend. Probably around 8 hours in total.The quality of sound/tone for the money is outstanding! I have a Bugera V5 practice amp and a Blackstar HT-5R, which are both in the same price range, and this amp blows both of them away in tonal quality.This kit comes with excellent step by step instructions that are clearly drawn and easy to understand. I noticed that another reviewer had issues and was less than satisfied with the customer support. I didn't have issues with my build, but I paid very close attention to each step and double checked everything.

Very nice kit good quality components sounds awesome you can get clean or you can get dirty would recommend
