Hi,

The topboost was "borrowed" from the 2nd stage and tone control
section of the Gibson GA-77 Vanguard from 1954.

If you compare them closely you'll find that the two circuits are completely
identical. Every component value & position, the 12AX7 valve configuration
and biasing, the tone network, and particularly - the grounding error on the
Bass Potentiometer.

Original information courtesy of http://www.blueguitar.org/new/articles/ ... pboost.pdf

Best regards,

Steve
