From the project

collection of guitar pedal PCB layouts in kicad

This is a clone of the Pigtronice Fat Drive overdrive.

This also has a very nice crunchy sound.

Changed the board size to 3mm narrower, and that caused the board to get a new layout that is slightly changed. Used freerouter with some manual cleanup.

So this pedal is verified. I have not boxed this one yet, either.
