From the post

Traced by AlexS and Fuzzhead, this is a quite tweakable and heavily modified HM2 variant with more gain on tap, more volume, two on/off/on diode switches and a very flexible four band eq. It is a quite noisy beast when Gain and all eq controls is maxed out though but a buffer up front helps a lot. Or you can increase 1K resistor connecting to Gain 3 to calms things down. Stock HM2 value is 47k so there is a pretty wide margin to experiment within. Layout is verified.

  • D10 and D11 (rows Q-R, columns 5-7) are drawn as round red LEDs; the legend's '3mm red LEDs' line names D7-D8, taken as a slip for D10-D11
  • D4-D6: legend says only 'Shottky' (Schottky), no part number
