I'm taking a PCB design class at a local community college starting in July. Maybe I can make a layout as part of the class using the article layout as a guide. (With a little lot help from folks on the forum)
I'm all for bringing the kits back for a triumphant 2024 summer reunion tour if the parts are available.

It's a little disappointing that there has been no response to the various requests for PCBs or Gerber files to build more of the Sony VFET amps - I have a pair of 2SK60 VFETS and the necessary MosFets I would like to use.
The PCB is actually pretty simple so I think I'll start laying out my own PCB design, referenced to Nelson's original article on the design.

You can also use proto boards, or perf boards, or strip boards with great success as this circuit is simple enough to allow this.
Some years ago I built in succession ZenLite Headamp, Pearl 1 Phono and MoFo with strip boards and they are still going strong without hiccups.
In the photos below the 1st one is Zen, the next Pearl.
