The schematics you gave is a completely different thing, someone else's idea. The trimpot there is setting the transistor bias I think.<br /><br />This one has three stages, one is a preamp, the second one is one-pot tone control (texture knob) and the last one is the actual distortion."Olavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16624745937563723393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-29050739526160282102013-01-09T15:15:33.911+00:002013-01-09T15:15:33.911+00:00In that video, the texture pot sounds like its jus...In that video, the texture pot sounds like its just adding or taking away bass.
