Wiring shown overleaf will disconnect the battery when you
remove the jack plug from the input, and also when a DC plug is
inserted.
Snap the little metal tag off the pots to mount them flush in the
box.
You should use some kind of heat sink on the legs of the diodes
and transistors when soldering. They aren’t keen on heat. Any
more than 3-4 seconds of iron and they’re toast.
I’ve incorporated the Current Limiting Resistor for the LED into
the board for your pleasure.
The switch mounts on the underside of the PCB. You can then
mount the whole board in the enclosure using it. Nice!
I recommend not leaving the switch until last - it can be
awkward to get the soldering iron in once all the components
are in place.
VOLUME
- kinda self explanatory. The LPB boost I’ve
incorporated into the circuit will give you plenty of punch
BLEND
- between Fuzz and Octave signal.

SWITCH
This is optional, but
why wouldn’t you
include it?
If you want to take it
out, connect the switch
pads in one of these
combinations:
2-OCTAVE DOWN
