Fuzz Face Schematic and PCB

[alexis_droso]

Hi, I just finished designing my first ever PCB. It's basically a NPN Silicon Fuzz Face with some very minor tweaks and an added reverse voltage protection circuit which is basically R.G Keen's cheap protection circuit. Since, it's my very first PCB I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at the schematic and the board images that I'll attach and tell me your opinion. I think it's probably going to work, but any suggestion that you have or any mistake that you may see, you are more than welcome to let me know.

Thank you very much.

Looks like N5 is colliding with the ground pad of the Fuzz pot, which is probably not what you want.

Apart from the issue with N5 trace, it's not bad for a first effort!  I tend to put parts closer together than you have, you could make the board a bit smaller if you did that.  There are a few places where traces could have been routed differently to make them more direct, but that comes with practice.  Keep at it.

I think you are missing some via between Q1, Q2 and R1.
