Drunk Beaver Distortion

Everyone has a legendary DS-1, your brother, sister, granny 😅. The modern variant of DS-1 by Boss has several critical disadvantages for a current rig that we've addressed in the modified original '78 MIJ circuit:
- Mids scoop toggle has 3 presets stock DS-1, less scooped, and flat mids.
- Modern (RC4580) and vintage (NOS MIJ Rohm BA728 same that was used from 94 till 2000) op-amp toggle.
- Eight clipping options.
- True bypass instead of the buffered one used in Boss pedals.
- High-quality components that the original DS-1 never had. No ceramic capacitors or cheap resistors.

Controls:
- Level - output volume.
- Dist - the amount of gain.
- Tone - controls the balance between low and high frequencies.
- Mids toggle - controls mid frequencies scoop: stock DS-1, less scooped, and flat mids.
- Temper switch - Boost (no diodes), LEDs, '78 (vintage Si diodes), '94 (1N914), Ge (asymmetrical NOS Soviet D9), Si (asymmetrical 1N914), MOS (BS170 MOSFET transistors), 4001 (1N4001).
- Soul toggle - selects modern (TI RC4580) or vintage (MIJ Rohm BA728) op-amp.
- Muff toggle - adds clipping diodes to the transistor gain stage, makes a bit more compressed and tight sound.
- LED brightness trimmer - placed on the PCB trimmer allows you to adjust the status LED brightness.

Power Supply: 9V DC adapter (Boss-style negative center) not included. No batteries. They are bad for the environment 🌲.

Dimensions: 125B, 122mm x 66mm x 39.5mm
