Are you referring to the mixer tube for the wet/dry? That is more or less retained here I believe?

Yes that is exactly it, the one half of the mixer tube for the clean (without reverb) signal.

That idea is somewhat similar to ODSR#13 I believe. It's reverb is pre OD. It's an interesting idea, but I wasn't a huge fan of the pre OD reverb tone.
Martin, I've omitted the .012uF cap leading into the Filter network in lieu of the .02uF coupling cap coming from the clean channel/OD ratio out.
I've redrawn to replace the bypass toggle with a relay. Will make it easier to control should I decide to make the filters exclusive to the clean mode or OD.

Not really similar to the #13. That amp first mixes the dry + wet and then overdrives both. In that case the Overdrive signal has reverb on it.
On my design the Overdrive is exactly the same of a ODS with the overdrive signal (dry without reverb and in this case pre-filter) coming right after the tonestack recovery tube.

I'm not a fan of the HT-derived negative voltage and B+ string positive voltage for the CF. The negative voltage comes up slowly and the high positive voltage results in a very high potential from the anode to the bottom of the cathode resistor.

Then you'll have 0.02u in front of the filter from the clean and 0.005u in OD. The filter response won't be the same, with reduced bass in OD, or a treble boost, if you prefer. That is similar to what happens in an ODS, though.
