THORPY FX: Fallout Cloud (Muffroom Cloud)

The Thorpy FX Fallout Cloud AKA the Muffroom Cloud, is a Big Muff with a Baxandall tone stack.

Here's the thread on Freestompboxes.  It's a lower gain muff, probably more like a BMP from the former Soviet Union, as they also tend to have 47n caps on the diodes and large emitter resistors.

Taken from the pedal PCB schematic that's on Freestompboxes.   Not verified as yet, I have checked over the schematic a few times, but I have not built this (yet).

And if you want to make exactly the same thing, but with additional frustration and an extra hour or so of time spent, maybe this is for you.  I find it somehow satisfying.
