Black Ice wannabe 2 diodes clipping passive switch

Onboard Distortion Without a Battery?

Added Passive distortion switch from tonefiend to my circuit. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/STMicroelectronics/BAT41/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMvAvBNgSS9LquujaTxtlB93

Sounded more like a mild overdrive. Maybe because I was playing at low volume, Will blast it tomorrow and try with 4 diodes.

With 4 diodes
