You must be ing from ear to ear !!
 What a score. Lotta guys might think somethings junk when it's not working. I know I used to, can't get anyone interested in diddley for a broken effect.
 I've never fixed a Jfet bypass, but other than that I'm like in the market for certain used items, especially if they're broken. Might seem wierd, but I actually like debugging, it's like a puzzle.  To be more accurate I like finding the problem, and sometimes the solution, however that solution thing has gotten me impatient a few times...finding where the 'connection in violation' is, can be needle in haystack sometimes, especially one that say goes to ground...so many places usually for the violation to occur, it gets hard to police such a large area.    
 Debug rant warning...
 Congrats on getting a working "Green Machine"!
