Yes, I have used the search function, but haven't come across this...yet, anyway:
First off, the circuit...

Sorry, I don't know how to snag them and post them here.

The pcb shows a 100uF cap a couple of spaces below the large IC, but the schematic doesn't have such a value, nor do the vero layouts I've come across.  Those of you who have built this: is it right?

Also, the schematic shows a .11uF cap up by the tone section...is this a typo?

I have listened to demos of this and really like it, and am ready to get into the build.  Please advise.
Thanks!   Larry

Referring to the schematic the 100uF cap is connected across "to CD4049AE +" and "to CD4049AE -" so if you just leave it out then that part of the layout will match the schematic. I don't know if the 0.11uF cap is a typo but the layout has 1.1uF in same position, the cap just under trim 2 on the layout, 0.1uF should work fine. I wonder if the layout is for a different version than the schematic.

You can use a .1uF instead of .11uF - won't make a difference.

Ah, the man himself! 
My thanks to you both!

Saw that during my Google search...I'm surprised, given all the diy-ers that seem to really dig this circuit, that there aren't more layouts of all types.

Thanks!

Well, Leslie West said it best. "In a room full of gasoline, how many matches do you really need? One. And a back up."
