Build #5 of 6 for current batch

[Big O]

Build is the Gary Hurst Variant of the Tonebender Mk1.  Nice one trick pony fuzz, which sounds slightly different than the Sola Sound Mk1 I built a couple of years ago.  I only used a GPCB 3PDT Board in this build since GPCB does not have any PCB that I could have modified to build a TB Mk1.  The Fuzzy Bee is similar to a Mk3 and the PUTB is a Mk2, and the PUFF board I used to build a Vox/Mk1 TB since these circuits are similar to a PNP Ge Fuzz Face, having slightly different components.  The GBOF could not be modified as well for a TB Mk1.

Note that there are two daughter boards since I had to place 2 electrolytic caps in parallel to make a 25uF cap in two places (22uF + 2.2uF).  Also had to add two separate resistor networks as mods in order to get all the right components into the circuit.

My next couple of builds will all be done with all GPCB boards.  Just working through my list.
