In the lower position you have a pair of BAT41 Schottky diodes which clip at around 0.3v. That's significantly lower than the 2v of the LEDs. The sooner clipping starts, the lower the output volume will be. With the lower clipping threshold you get more distortion and compression.
Whenever you have clipping options you have to adjust the volume control to compensate. I assume that you can get unity gain out of it on the BAT41 setting?
I said maybe.....

But the first one went on ok. Brushed with a little diluted pva, positioned, quick check to make sure the pots were at the centre of the markings....

And waiting for it to dry. Added advantage is that pva will 'rub off' where it oozed out

Finally got my noise gate working. Was a total headache but worth it for this alone

Loving the GB tune
Just noticed that some are 100K and some 100R on the instructions!
Talk me through exactly how to test which is which with my tester please somebody?
I've just been looking at the colour code charts and that makes no sense to me whatsoever, I can't tell which is supposed to be the fat stripe!
I've got that, was going through sorting out into sizes when I noticed the R or K values on the sheet. I'm just confused as to the difference between 100R and 100K and how test each.
100k is 100,000 ohms.
