Nice build and great sounding vibe, no need to buy one from JHS when you can build it yourself to your own liking.
I had a tiny issue with a broken trace I found when measuring continuity on the PCBs. The trace between the 1n5817 and 47uf wasn’t working but when I made a small bridge from the 1n5817 to the copper trace underneath close to the 1n5817 it gave continuity again. Luckily that was before I populated the PCBs.
I applied the 2u2/1uf tantalum and 1.5k speed resistors mod from @Big Monk which worked great to have lower and higher speeds.
I also applied the unity mod using 4,7M and 6,8k. I used 2n5088 but did use a higher HFE in Q1.
