I replaced the 1uf caps with .47uf and then messed with the resistors to get the range of control I wanted. Seems when I changed to .47uf, the oscillation would stop at one end of the pot travel until I adjusted the resistors. I also used an internal trimmer in place of the level pot, and adjusted it for unity.

Also used a dual color LED so I could monitor the rate when it is in bypass mode.

Tried several tremolos before this one, but this one was exactly what I was looking for. Sounds great.

Here's a pic of my finished box.
