Le Kaneda Grand Floyd is a well known design within a group of Kaneda fan in Europe, based on an Amp design from Pr Kaneda and it has being painfully developed over numerous versions to reach the current state. There is french forum with some threads dedicated to Kaneda that tell the complete story (as marked on the pcb: https://forums.melaudia.net/showthread.php?tid=10217 ) Yes I know it is in french 😉 You can use google translate, I did years ago when I started to be interested in Pr. kaneda work, but from japaness magazine.

Thread that discuss the amp upgrade, and also links to further threads dedicated to the amp: https://forums.melaudia.net/showthread.php?tid=8256

You can buy with confidence, it is great amp, well built and designed, and yes it should have Kaneda voicing and attribute… Btw I made one with my own pcb some years ago…
