From the vendor
One half of the Analogman King of Tone, which the author calls a modified Marshall Bluesbreaker: a JRC4580 input buffer, a non-inverting gain stage with MA856 diode pairs in its feedback loop (switched by DIP1), 1S1588 diodes to ground (DIP2), and a Bluesbreaker-style tone with a treble-boost trimmer. The KOT puts two of these in series; Torchy's General Guitar Gadgets project builds one half, so build two for the full pedal.
The drawing lists changed values for the General Guitar Gadgets project boards only: R2 27K, R3 33K, R7 a jumper, C5 100u electrolytic, C6 a jumper, C7 100n, plus an added 10K gain stopper resistor, a 50K treble-boost trimmer and a 1u output cap.
