Here is a great project taken from freestompboxes.org - a simplified Klon Centaur, essentially the same circuit as the original minus the charge pump. Each part of the circuit has been modified to ensure it has exactly the same response as an original unit. It was designed by mictester (if you pop over to the freestomp forums check out his other circuits, he's got some real gems!) and has been extensively tested against original units for authenticity of tone.
Here is the original thread (There is also some great work by earthtonesaudio): http://www.freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=7526
Here is the schematic for quick reference;
Here is a vero layout from DrTonyBalls (again over at freestomp!) ;

Welcome to the Revolution
Hi there, welcome to my blog - La Revolution Deux. It's an odd name - but I like it! Here you will find all the info on my various DIY Guitar effects builds, amplifiers and guitars. Everything from a humble Ibanez tubescreamer to the holiest KLON Overdrive.
You may also find a few effects builds that I am looking to move on - usually in exchange for other effects/gear/cash. You can always check my ebay account to see what I've got up for grabs.
Have fun, enjoy the blog - Fred Briggs :-)
