Tonal profile

Germanium-output-stage overdrive with Drive, Volume and Tone, a Phat switch for low-end weight and a clipping-diode selector, running on an internal voltage doubler for headroom. Less compressed than the original Oxblood: it thins to near-clean with the drive backed off and thickens through a warm, slightly woolly overdrive into fuzz-adjacent territory wide open.
