use a 300k trimmer to bias q3
definitely use a 250k for gain
i recommend to mod it and get a sweep pot in place of switch..

and that's all for now!sorry for taking too much space!

Looks interesting, thanks: Have you got a scheme you could post? I got lost trying to mentally trace the vero layout, but got lost at the mosley Q2. Schematics make it much easier to appraise what a circuit might sound like, and also makes it far easier for casually interested forum members to quickly breadboard your circuit to hear it.

i drew the vero from this schem, but if you follow that post and this one

http://guitar-fx-layouts.42897.x6.nabbl ... 14828.html

you'll see that there are links that show a few more schematics on that mosfet/j-fet idea

Ha! Never saw that nabble site before... A lot of stuff on there, even the Tight Metal. Glad to see that you made a vero, people email me asking for vero layouts all the time and I just can't seem to make those! Probably my ADHD

Nice work! You should try the Engl and the SLO also very good sounding and lot's of gain!
