Bump for this. Anybody have any recent news? I haven't seen anything come up on their website.

did you happen to look at the link that selfdestroyer posted? there is a response that says to put a 22k resistor between the output cap and the volume pot which would decrease the overall volume but most likely eliminate the squeal.

Also along these lines, I'm interested in possibly adding a gain control to this schematic. Has anyone played around with that idea?

aha not even joking it's meant to have a bigger knob (...) but that has yet to arrive from hong kong after a month and i've lost all hope. i think this size is probably as big as it needs to be, i already had to dremel down the pot so it wasn't mysteriously floating above the enclosure.
about the noise, i haven't cranked it since boxing but it's not noticeably noisy under 11 o'clock. i only have a gibson with humbuckers, it gets slightly muddy on neck pickup but on all settings sounds 'rockier' and less creamy than the big muff clone i did couple weeks ago. there is a sticky plasticky undertone as well which gives it the doom vibes i think.
when i was testing, past about 3 o'clock it just squeals out and is unusable, though i did pick up some radio stations (?!)
a weird thing about it that i need to test is, i have a LM386 amp which can power a decent sized speaker on its own at 9V, but this doesn't seem to be able to. i'd also love to a/b with a real version and might buy even one at some point to do so then trade.
