Is it contest time again?

Here's what I've been working on. I've had a goal to make a "distortion" pedal that cleans up nicely and can go from an overdrive type sound to full on distortion. Another thing I wanted to do was use all logarithmic 100k pots. There's something about using the same pots that appeals to me for some reason. When you're assembling you don't have to worry about mixing them up either.

Some values may be different on the breadboard vs the schematic because I'm still playing around with it. Not the most creative thing I admit because it's so similar to an OCD and a million other distortions. It sounds really good if I do say so myself. I still need to make a Vero layout for it.

Feel free to submit this as an entry to PHB contest I'm holding now. It will knock the current breadboard leader right on their ass. I'm looking for actual builds and circuits, not memes at the moment.
