I just finished this one, a NostalgiTone CitrusAmp in a 1590B2. it's their take on an Orange amplifier in a pedal , and IMO it's pretty darn good, although I hoped it had a bit more output. Theys originally recommended red led's for the clipping and said that you could use 5817's for a bit more, so that what I used. I've built quite few orange amps in a pedal and this one is probably as good as the rest.

You'd probably have more output with LEDs instead of 5817's.
I thought so too, but I tried it first with leds and surprisingly, there wasn't much difference in distortion or level so i just left the 5817's in it.
