A few things got me moving on this: first, I've super enjoyed the overdrive / distortion pedals I've got, second, the guitar shop I go to put a new in box ~1998 klon up for sale at $7500. Maybe most of all, record high COVID rates here and the need for good winter-friendly projects.
I enjoy building circuits, I know I could buy any of a number of exact, or souped up clones off the shelf &, however that doesn't allow for the fun of the build process.
The enhancement from a true clone I have in mind will be a small external breadboard where I can trial a variety of clipping circuits, I plan on 3 selectable circuits, initial thought is germanium, silicon & breadboard.
About half the components are installed, with a bit more than 2/3 the board space remaining. Hopefully it runs smooth and performs well.
I've got no expectation I'll like this better than my Open Window, still vive la difference!
