A very straightforward and easy build with a nice layout and no hard to obtain parts.
I don't have many Tubescreamer based pedals, just a lightly modded 808 clone and the Pedal PCB version of the King Tone Soloist. I never connected with either of those but the stripped down design of the circuit intrigued me enough to try this one out. From what I can tell, they've taken out the standard TS buffer, added a pair of diodes to the clipping section, and made some modifications to frequencies affected by the tone knob. Of the Screamer-ish pedals I've tried, this is by far my favorite. Give it a try if you are considering it!
