DPDT Gain boost

* P1A and P1B form a stereo potentiometer and not two separate potentiometers.
** Pre 1995 original versions have a jumper instead of a resistor as

. It is just a current

limiting resistor. There is no sonic difference if you put it in or leave it out.

All parts need to be 25V+ rated A=Log, B=Lin, C=Rev. Log
