Union Jack wires to go with the theme on front - love it! I checked out your website gallery at codtone.com. You have a great style.

Nice etch! I didn't know that could fit into a 1590b. Good show! (as always)

I really like these FET circuits, they seem a it more realisticly amp-like than diode clipping curcuits to me. I've made a couple of minor changes, I think a lin pot is better than log for the first volume and I used 33nf and a B50K for the cut, it makes it a bit more effective.
One other trick I'll pass along, all those trimmers are like the dials on a combination lock, if one is off you have a dead pedal. Use an audio probe to go through each one in turn, adjusting them to turn on and then for strongest signal. Some of them just don't turn on when set to 4.5v.
