Hey everyone! I haven't attempted a build of this yet. This was a pretty popular Electra variant about a decade ago and some of the more popular mods of this include, but are not limited to: 1) using a lower gain transistor, like a 3565 for more definition 2) adding a 500k gain pot between the 1m pulldown resistor and 47nF input cap (1m resistor to leg 3, leg 1+2 to the 47nf cap) as the stock "gain" pot only functions when the boost is engaged, and 3) varying the diode in the D6 position so that mode one is more distinct from mode 3. If any one does try and fail, I will be monitoring these comments and will send Anders an edited drawing if necessary!
