Shout out to @MattG for the PCB design on this one. Check link for that thread Here And a big shoutout to @Chuck D. Bones for modding this circuit. Check this link for that thread Here



This drive sounds awesome. I've no experience with the original. But this sounds so good. Does not get super dirty but still has nice grit. Very nuanced drive tones. I went with 2N4123 for Q2 and 3. I really enjoy it.

It's that time of year where painting enclosures is next to impossible without proper heating and ventilation. Which I have none. The pedal sounds so good I just really wanted to box it up so I threw it in this one. Looks fine. Not near as nice as the others but this one is made to be played hard.

Great job Matt with incorporating the relay system. All worked great. Really a fun DIY project.

Totally have to agree, this drive is killer! The second I plugged it in and strummed a chord, I knew it was going to have a permanent spot on my board. Definitely love stacking it with my Scenario. Sick circuit for sure!
