weve slammed onboard fx pretty hard
but a boost is a great idea
youll need a battery for both,no?

Im pretty sure itll have to have the battery compartments on the back with cliplids. Itll be too much trouble to remove the pickguard everytime.

You're right, didn't think about that but it would be really annoying to have to take the pickguard off every time you changed batteries.

They're all the same components as used in pedals so in theory there's no problem, but you might need roller pots that are different values from the ones in the guitar to match what's normally in the pedals. I don't know how easy it is to get new roller pots because they aren't exactly common outside of jags/jazzys.

That said, I suspect the visual aesthetic wouldn't be for everyone.
