"How about a Mad Professor Stone Grey with too many clipping options? How about 4 clipping options on a rotary switch? With the ability to switch them between symmetrical and asymmetrical, too?" These are the kind of questions I ask myself when I have too much time on my hands and I'm going through Eagle withdrawals. So how about it? Totally unnecessary. The germanium diodes just make it a low-gain OD that is just kinda bland. The silicon diodes sound about the same as the transistors. But I guess I sort of expected that. The LED's are a bit different. About the normal difference you would expect between LED and silicon in any other distortion circuit.
Clipping aside, it's a great distortion circuit. There is a stripped-down, through-hole version in process to be released later this year for Grind Customs FX. Here's a bit about that.

Here it is in all of it's overdone glory.

Wow. What a nice build. Love the layout.
Too cool! Totally worth it even if you aren't thrilled with all the clipping options. Btw, if I blur my eyes I see Skeletor in the Gutshot. Was that intentional with the white wire teeth? :)
I was waiting for this one to get posted! Great job on that layout. But only 8 clipping options? :)

Very nice. I like those knobs.
probably overkill, but who cares? Great job on layout, wiring and finish
Badassery all the way around.

Totally accidental. But I like your imagination.

I prolly would've done more but I ran out of switches :).
That's AWESOME!
Thats some sloppy work, mam. How do you sleep at night?
;D
I cant see the components even if I squint.
great job!
Whoa dude! That is just sickening! I seriously love the graphics for the clipping rotary and toggle. And that wiring!!!
