Commission a Build

Handcrafted by Sage Benado

Your Sound. Handcrafted.

At Benado Effects, elite analog tone is built on one principle: meticulous focus. Every build receives the care and attention I have spent 35 years refining, with musical expression at the heart of the process.

Flexible Payment Options

Ordering through a product page is for full payment. To arrange the optional 50% production deposit instead, contact me at sage@benadoeffects.com before placing your order.

For clients who prefer not to pay the full build price upfront, I offer an optional 50% Non-Refundable Production Deposit.

This deposit secures your build slot and ensures your unit’s premium components are sourced and reserved immediately. Full payment locks in today’s pricing, protecting you from any future cost increases before your build is complete.

50% Production Deposit — based on your chosen build’s total price.
Remaining balance is due when assembly of your unit begins.

Final Payment: You will receive an invoice for the remaining balance at the start of your build. All deposit arrangements are handled via dedicated invoice. Reach out via the Contact Form or email sage@benadoeffects.com to get started.

The Artisan Pace: Why I Work This Way

Every unit is hand-wired and personally voiced, each circuit tuned by ear until it meets my exacting standard before it leaves the bench. As a sole craftsman, I prioritize time at the bench over administrative churn. You will receive a personal update as your build nears completion.

Thank you for entrusting your sound to my hands and ears.
