I see what you are saying.

But because he mentioned the weird pinout of the 2n3819 in the introduction I didn't really check the labeling in the layout - but if I had noticed I would have assumed that he just mislabeled the tranny in the layout; I also read notes from other people that said that you need to twist the pins if you want to use other FETS than the 2n3819. I assumed that was why the 2n7000 has a different layout.
Anyway, it is a moot point now, I also built an LED version of this and no matter what I do I can't seem to tame this circuit. Just so bright it is ridiculous. It makes a decent treble boost with the gain off, though.
I only wondered about JHF comments about the voltage going to the 3069 - he says it has a big effect on the tone quality. I wonder if anyone has experimented with that.
