I was curious if anyone knew of a simple opamp build that goes from clean to fairly distorted.  I have built some of the 4552 circuits but they don't seem to get very clean.  I've searched around and haven't really found anything there either.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

thanks!

I dont know if you've tried this, ROG "Tube Reamer"  www.runoffgroove.com
Reduce the 470k to a 150k and use a 50k lin pot for gain
You get nice "Drive" and it will now "clean up" nicely !!
NE5532 single op-amp sounds great.
Easy Build :-)
