The little gem is a great starter amp to build. It is by far the easiest guitar based circuit I have put together and sounds great. I would recommend the original Little Gem personally, http://www.runoffgroove.com/littlegem.png
It is only 1/2watt but it sounds great and is loud enough for practice situations by yourself. If you want more power than that, I would recommend building a LM1875 based amp.
