Memphis Distortion

When i first looked at the schematic, i thought that there isn't much point in drawing this - as it is very mildly modded Dist+/OD250 derivative. But then it occurred to me.. There is some psychological thing stopping me from modding a Dist+ or 250. Somehow those seem to be untouchables. So i drew this up to as a mind game, to be easier stop for modding :)

For starters, one should try different clipping diode options, such as 1N4148, LEDs, schottkys, multiple germ/Si/LED/schottkys in series - maybe put some of those combinations on a switch. The another thing i would suggest trying is to replace 1M feedback loop resistor for a pot. Plus there are tons of more things you could do with a simple distortion circuit like this. ...or you could just clone it.
