Blues Power v1
Blues Power is unique in that it combines a simple MOSFET boost stage with a JFET “tube” stage. This is
based off the ROG Peppermill but with added clipping options to allow the circuit to exhibit more clipping than
the original and with LEDs a much warmer tube-style tone. We have also changed a value to allow more bass
response. Now besides being used a boost it can also work as an overdrive with Bass or Standard guitar. The
tone control is a low pass filter at minimum rotation, but at 65% rotation it changes to a fine high pass filter.
