PASSIVE
-Resistors of 1, 22, and 47 values (100ohm, 22k, 470k,etc)
-Nonelectro caps - Mostly 1-values, higher values (100pf and up)
-Electrolytic caps - 1, 22, and 47 values
-Potentiometers: 1k, 5k, 10k, 100k

ICs
-Op amps: 741, 071, 082, 4558
(The below are not necessary but recommended)
-Op amps: 3080
-Audio amps: 386
-Timers: 555

Diodes
-1n4001, 1n34, silicon

Transistors
-NPN: 2n2222, 2n3904, 2n5088
-PNP: ?
-Darlington: ?

SWITCHES
-Toggle: A few SPDT
-Stomp: Lots of DPDT and 3PDT, a few SPDT

JACKS
-Mono, 2 conductor 1/4"
-Stereo, 3 conductor 1/4" (about 1/3 as many as mono)

ENCLOSURES

-Hammond 1590B or equivalent (1/2 as many as BB)
(buy others based on need)

KNOBS

TOOLS, WIRE, ETC
-Soldering iron, low wattage (15-25)
-60/40 low diameter solder
-Set of small screwdrivers
-22-24 AWG wire (pre-tinned preferable)
