SPACEMAN EFFECTS: Saturn V Harmonic Booster, Point to Point Layout

Just a straight up boost / low gain overdrive from Spaceman Effects - the Saturn V Harmonic Booster.  It's a pretty quick and easy build & does it's job well.

Build in progress pic below, which is a little different to the layout, as I changed my mind about where + - V should be after making it (I just flipped them around).  I also subbed in a couple of caps as I didn't have a 27nf or 180nf caps.  I went with the next nearest value that I had, which was 33nf and 220nf.  Probably won't make much difference.  

I also removed the millennium bypass LED circuit, and combined drain resistor values.  The drain had two resistors in series, which has no purpose.

If you don't have ferrite beads, just leave then out.  Makes no audible difference.
