This build was a celebratory one.  My 100th pedal, so why not make it GOLDEN?  For the circuit I chose the Cornish G-2. 

For those that dont know, Pete Cornish is an old (olde?) English dude that has made a name for himself making the most insanely bulletproof effects and amplification rigs for the pros.  David Gilmour, Brian May, Sting, etc. all use these zillion dollar Cornish rigs. For the most part the effects were all giant multi-effects units, and everything was totally custom.  More recently, though, Mr. Cornish decided he would make some effects as standalone units and sell them to the general public just like regular effects pedals (only they range from $300-750).  Well the Cornish G-2 is his *fancy* version of a Big Muff (presumably made for Gilmour at some point), complete with input/output buffers and subtle parts mods.  So I figured, what better way to make a fancy anniversary pedal than to choose a circuits that is just a fancy version of another circuit.
