COLORSOUND: Jumbo Tone Bender

Surprised that I hadn't done a standard vero layout for this earlier...  The Colorsound Jumbo Tone Bender is just a Big Muff missing some diode clipping and the last boost stage (the lack of diodes in the first clipping stage makes up for the lack of boost).

They share nothing in common with their predecessors of the same name, not that Tone Benders MKI, MKII and MKII had any fundamental similarities.  They aren't for everyone, as they can sound quite raw on guitar compared to a regular Big Muff.

The 3n cap in the tone section is sometimes seen as slightly different values - being a BMP tone stack, it's easily modded to suit your taste.
