From the post
The Sonic Titan creates amp-like distortion through the use of a JFET preamp stage, followed by LM386 power amp stage. The JFET stage creates the clipping and the LM386 amplifies the signal generated by the JFET.
Original units use a 2N3819 JFET with DGS pinout, so I've also included an layout for DSG JFETs like the J201, 2N5457, etc.
