looks good!
but the transistors and the diode aren't labeled in your schematic.

There such standard stuff, I totally forgot. Mosfet is BS170, Jfet's J201 and diode 1N4818. Sorry. ;)

Looks cool! What does it sound like?

With a 2.2k resistor at the source of the last stage it is smooth and compressed. With the diode, it's hot and nasty. A 10k trim pot would work well there. I should probably change the resistor in the tonestack from 100k to 47k or 22k (another trim pot). :icon_twisted:
