Beautiful work!

Where can I find more info on the LED mod? I've built up the Sabrotone vero too, and I find that the circuit clips a little to easily.

Thanks!  :)
It's on Valveizard's schematic and layout (http://valvewizard.co.uk/engineersthumb.html), but it seems Harald didn't use it on his layout. It's a difficult fit, but you can fit them if you solder them together in one.

Here's what I did in mine. Hope it helps!

Awesome! I'm rebuilding mine (to work) and another for a friend. Guessing the 1k limits the release value and the 10nf darkens/brightens the response of the switch

Exactly what they do. 1k limits the release value (yet not a great improvement, but it does its job..) and the 10nF brightens the switch, because the 4.7nF did not have any difference in my ears. :)

Thanks
