D*A*M: Dragonfly, 0.15" Vero Layout (incomplete trace)

While I was working on the D*A*M Drag n Fly layout, I noticed one of the big box Dragonfly vero layouts didn't look much like the rest.  For one, it didn't have trimmers, and then there were too many capacitors?  

It turns out that at least some Dragonflys are not the same circuit as the Drag n Fly.  Still in the Fuzz Face family, but the tone control blend happens at the output, not the input stage.

The incomplete trace below - there's only one unknown value that's really going to matter, and that's the capacitor forming a high-pass filter in the tone section.  Breadboard it and see what you like -  note the values table below.
