4700uH inductors are avaliable on ebay.
Now what is correct, 4.7H, 500mH transformer, 4700uH = 4.7mH? :?

One more Question.
What is the pin spacing of the potentiometers?

Hi Soulsonic,

to create this layout i made a template from the photos and had the problem that when the opamp pinout was right the pads for the potentiometers had a distance of 1/4".
Is this true or is the real distance 1/5", if necessary I will adjust the layout.

The spacing I measured is 1/4". The original pots are the larger size CTS branded ones, like one usually sees in older guitars and amps. I believe they are approximately 1" diameter.
