Nice low-part-count overdrive. It's pretty transparent, and doesn't have much gain on tap. But it sounds good for adding some grit or boost, and I can see why this is a popular pedal--I was really enjoying the sounds I got when testing it, stacked with a prince of tone.

I biased transistors to 6V with the sag knob turned all the way CCW. I think that's what others said to do but I'm not 100% sure--please let me know if you think it should be different.

This is a Tayda "Silver Hammer" finish, but in person it's more black than silver. And I just ordered a drill tap for this enclosure, because 3 of the 4 screws aren't going in cleanly.
