From the vendor
mictester's single-rail version of the Klon Centaur: the same circuit as the original without the charge pump, with each section adjusted so its response matches an original unit, and tested against originals. It keeps the dual-gang Gain pot that blends the clean path with the 1N34A germanium-clipped path, the active treble control and the buffered output, with a 1N4742 zener on the supply.

- R1 is marked '10k*' on the drawing; the asterisk is not explained.
- The resistor in U2B's feedback is labeled R241 (read as R24, 100k).
- The vero layout's parts list differs in places: R12 410k (the schematic has R12 and R12A, both 820k, in parallel), C13 4n7 (the schematic has C13 and C13A, both 2n2), R5 5k (the schematic has R5 and R5A, both 10k), and a TL074 instead of two TL072.
