From the post

Jeremy just mentioned it and as I had the template to hand and it would only take 2 minutes I thought I'd include this one.

I've got another schematic which is identical other than the 430p caps which are shown as 500p, but you're always best experimenting with those anyway on a case by case basis to make sure you're avoiding any fizz.

Schematic

This is a board layout, a drawing of where each part goes, and the post may link the schematic it was drawn from. Open the layout at Tagboard Effects. No KiCad fragment has been drawn for this circuit yet.
