Roger Mayer Vision Octavia [traced]

Got one of these from my friend for a trace. The schematic should be correct. I left out the "millenium bypass-thingy" from the schematic.
It differs a bit from the Rocket series Octavia, but not much. The "tone" control looks pretty unique at least to me.
I haven't been able to build it yet to make an A/B test with the original, but When I do I can confirm it. The pedal sounds actually really good.

Thank you for your trace, I've been interested in this one for some time. I just drew up a tone control board to drop in my (2 control version) clone, replacing the 10n between Q2 & Q3, and it works well.
Now I'll do the other mods. Is this right to convert a stock Mayer Octavia?
This is the layout I used:

The point is that I can see 28 resistors on the Vision PCB and only 25 on the schematic (excluding the discarded 100K resistors from diodes to ground).
Unless three resistors are involved in the omitted millennium-bypass, something doesn't match exactly.
Someone has built it?
