From the post
Here's the None More Black from Menatone. It uses cascading JFET stages to produce a high gain distortion tones of the 80s all the way to modern metal tones. There are apparently some versions with and without a charge pump to run at 18v off a 9v supply. I had room for the charge pump, so I included it.
