<< Alternatively, any recommended changes to the ua741 design? >>

I can't believe what I'm reading- was there really a version of the pre-amp 
based on a 741? I only ever saw these things being used in fuzz-boxes.... if I 
could lay me hands on the pin-out, I'd recommend a drop-in replacement. 
whatever, there are many superior op-amps that would give better audio performance 
than a 741; the tl071c & the ne5534 have turned up in many high-end audio 
devices including studers & neves.....
