Heavy Matter (Tyrian build)

This circuit is heavily saturated in hard clipping and has a wide range TMB tone section. I went with a black on black Goth theme, just a difference in sheen. Gloss black vinyl overlay on a matte black enclosure. The on led is an ultraviolet one.
The knobs are knurled aluminum with a deep cut indicator line. The white paint is removed from the cut indicator line and graphite polish put in its place to give it a reflective sheen, creating contrasting sheen without a change in color. I'm not really into hard metal music, but the circuit is fun.

I know this is a an older post but thought i would ask on this post and see if anyone knows the answer. I am building this this weekend and noticed that This one and the g2/g3 pcbs all have an extra hole next to the power input at the top of the board. i see you didn't use them, its not in the build docs, or the wiring picture. What are they used for?

They're for grounding the input and output jacks. In this build, the jacks are grounded to the I/O PCB, so they don't need separate individual connections to the main PCB. But you should probably ask that question in a new, separate thread, rather than hijacking @The Gator's excellent build report.
