From the post
After a request John K has said that he's happy to have his layouts posted on the main site so there will be a few of these showing up over the next few days. All layouts posted are verified by John and others in many cases so you can definitely build with confidence. Starting with the Tronographic Rusty Box:
Info from the manufacturer about the original:
The rusty box is a pre-amp effect pedal optimized for bass guitar. The controls on the rusty box include input gain, bass, middle and treble eq, master volume and a boost footswitch. The rusty box is true bypass and has a balanced output for use as a direct box.
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.

Check before you build · 2 values the reader of this layout was not sure of
- Boost switch: only two connections are drawn (boost sw 2 on the board, lug 1 to ground) and no type is printed; entered as SPST
- 1u in the lower left quarter is drawn as a film/box cap, not a can, so it is not marked electrolytic
