Lovepedal - Vibe/Magicboy [traced]

I know there's another Lovepedal Vibe thread but I went out and got an actual Lovepedal Vibe/Magicboy
A proper trace/schematic/layout if anyone is up to it would be awesome!
I've never dealt with 5-band resistors before so let me know if anything is off. Also I couldn't get a good read on the diode so apologies for that
I'm 99% about the JFET's.
The random strips on the copper traces are from double sided tape
Here ya go!

This is my first attempt at a trace so apologize ahead of time.
I realized how shitty my pictures were, I'll have to reopen and get a better look. Some of the lines aren't 100% accurate but connections seem to be all there.

Interesting. I know the board is made by JD Sleep. Ill shoot him a message and askFrank_NH wrote: ↑21 Oct 2021, 11:45 Hmmm... That looks like an older GGG board for an MXR Phase 45 clone...

From JD,
“ What we have on the site is a somewhat different layout from the one I did for Sean, but, yeah it's a P45 with a couple mods, one of which is the "Vibe" mod listed on the site project. I think the only other mod was a 10uf for the output cap, which may or may not affect the tone, depending on the rig it is involved in. Sean thought the caps and transistors we used made a big difference in the sound, but those are now obsolete and hard to find.”

Hi DjPsychic
Thanks for the shots and filling in the values.
I have a PCB clone with SprintLayout 6.0 in work,
after completion I will trace the connections and draw the schematic.

So far it would be done.
The region around the potentiometer, which I marked with the yellow ellipse, is difficult to recognize.
I assume that this connection to which the yellow arrow points exists.
Please check the layout with your original PCB.
I will start tracing soon.

Here's an existing pic off my phone I've reversed. Sorry haven't had a chance to reopen.
I'm pretty sure this is the connection you need. If you need a better pic just let me know.
Thanks!

Thanks, I first start the tracing,
if I need more information I will get back to you.

Your green arrow points to the red one I have now drawn in, this connection was already visible.
I meant the parallel yellow marked connection above this one.

What are the size of the PCB?

I asked you because it was difficult to generate the template for the PCB layout,
which I can insert in SprintLayout 6.0, from the photo.
I created the templae using the perspective transformation function with GIMP.
It never works out one hundred percent but this time it was worse.
I adjusted the traces, for the tracing this is enough.
After that I will rework the layout and adjust it in size and appearance.
I put, if possible, the PCB on the scanner, that gives a veil better result than a photo.
