The scheme of such things published in the Bulgarian magazine “Young designer”.
Turning on the toggle switch ЅА2 cause distortion of the signal with different predominance of the even and odd harmonics introduced by variable resistor R6. The degree of distortion adjust the variable resistor RZ. In the upper position of the switch ЅА1 to play the guitar without the prefix.
