Throbak Overdrive Boost

 Per request.

A modified Colorsound Overdriver circuit with some bells and whistles. The most noticable one is the Ge switch which toggles in a germanium diode and a germanium transistor for hard clipping.

Schematic is avaiable HERE.

  2. I like how you've spared the ge transistor from needing it's leg clipped or left dangling 🦉

  3. Verified, I think, with one correction. The 150K should connect to the Base of Q1, not the Emitter. The fuzz sound sounds especially nice. Used a 1n34a and an AC125. Thanks
