Hey folks.. built Mr. Orman's Tweed Stack last year.. been lovin' it.  It's a flexible JFET preamp/boost/overdrive unit, with plenty of tweako'bility.. GAIN - TREBLE - BASS - VOLUME. 

I think of it as my ultimate preamp device.. I tried to stuff the PCB with the 'best' parts available.  Plenty of NOS Film and Silver Mica Capacitors, and all 1% Metal Film Resistors. ..I've added an LED and these sweet ProCo Rat knobs since snapping the pictures below.

It smokes.   8)

Thanks.  That holder came from Radio Shack, but usually I order them from Small Bear.  I roughed the area with sandpaper and stuck it with clear silicon.
