Got a unit here for repair and directly taking some few shots.

I'm super board at work, so I threw this together. Hope it may be of some help.

How does this unit sound? Is it meant to be a gain booster for pushing another pedal or amp, or a stand alone overdrive?

I only tested it once. It sounded like a high gain overdrive although i'm not sure about it.

The unit is still with me. I'll post pics for the controls later (it's PCB-mounted).

An LM308 and diodes to ground..

Maybe this is a hint to it's origins: Peavey AcceleRATor.

Has anyone modded one of these yet?...and if so, what mods were done & how did it turn out?

Hi, I need to repair the switch on one of these and can't see how it comes apart...do you have any pics of the disassembly? Thanks!
