More of a question for the @Robert 's of the forum, who have the patience to reverse engineer double-sided SMD pedals.
I was traded a Jetter Grissom Overdrive pedal for some repair work. It is one of the most useful OD's for those who get their sound from putting a tube amp on '7' and punishing the speakers. It has a slight touch of a mid-push and the 'Drive' controls an asymmetrical extra edge of breakup grit. Subtle sustain and no squishy compression. The 'Contour' control is a linear sounding subtle tone control, with no extreme positions. The 'Level' is simply a flat boost of what ever happened before it. I am surprised it isn't a more popular pedal, as I use it frequently.
I started reverse engineering it, then realized it was more involved than I had the time for (being back loaded on custom amp builds and repairs for a local music store).
I assume this pedal is a derivative of another Jetter pedal, that they tweaked for David Grissom. Does anyone know what circuit this is derived from, or have a general idea of the schematic?
