From the builder:

mayer octavia, done the twilight way. This one is the transformerless version. This is not the variant heard on purple haze, but the design is similar, and will result in a similar sound.

Now Roger Mayer is very secretive about his design, so I am not sure if the schematic online is based on the rocket or vision version. The rocket version is the latest one connected to Jimi and was used throughout the Band of Gypsys era. 

I am a MASSIVE hendrix enthusiast. If it was not for him, my life would have gone down a completely different path. I have his music to thank for everything I have today.

That said, I would not release these for sale if I did not believe they did not pay proper homage to Hendrix. It absolutely nails that late hendrix sound. I spent a LOT of time tweaking this circuit.

I made some changes to the design I found online, as this circuit was picking up a lot of RF interference (typical and normal of vintage circuits) so I added some mods to reduce this as much as possible without changing the tone of the pedal.

Note, that this circuit is STUPID loud. I keep the volume below center on clean amps, for already clipped amps/dirty channels, crank that mfer for a nasty, heavy fuzz.
