Bluetone Odysseus version has some functional and technical improvements compared to original design. These modifications are a buffered effect loop with Send level and foot switch, PPIMV Master Volume, a cathode biased power amp, which does not need biasing when changing power tubes.

Moreover there ios a OD Trim pot, which helps to tailor desired overdrive sound. Clean channel is extremely versatile producing a warm Fenderish clean sound, which can also be adjusted to create distortion to some extend.
