I'd have to work up to it myself, having never traced anything more than a FF  :P I wonder how much it would cost for Robert over at PPCB to trace it... man works miracles. Or Brian. I'd gladly loan mine to either of them. Looks like only a 2-layer to my eyes. Weird grid-style ground plane, like VFE does.

The MN3004 is definitely an odd duck. I think it would be more likely that a company like Xvive would make a new SAD1024 before taking on a chip that wasn't really used in guitar effects. That's what makes this version of the M117 so interesting...remember it has two MN3004's in there! It's probably the only guitar effect to ever do that. And it ultimately does sound/feel different than just going with an MN3007, despite the fact it's the same number of stages.
Now if we could just get a schematic...

12db isn't a small difference. 10db is considered a doubling in volume...

Nice! So it's the Greatest of All Tone then?

It's getting nice enough I should get out the laser again (no way in h*ck I'm doing that crap even in my garage...)

Thanks to you both! @jessenator, I actually used clear sticker paper for this, which I just got at Michael's. It's a bit easier to use than waterslide decals, but you can sort of see the edge of the sticker, even when you're careful with the cutting and placement. I'm not set up to record demos, but I'd say this is very much in the KoT neighborhood.
