Do get a bit of self oscillation when sustain maxed but not in a bad way.

I did find the level a bit low so i changed the 2k2 coming of the emitter of the 2N2222 to a 1k as mentioned in the thread on FSB and now it sounds perfect.

In this case just like the stock BMP tonestack it's passive, with a recovery stage after it to regain the output lost from the tonestack.
