Do you have a parts list for your mystery schematic?

"It uses a lm386 but it is not one of the Ruby or Noisy Cricket plans featuring a transistor."

The GRIT SWITCH seems to drive the circuit a little harder, giving it a little extra edge, or breakup. Its subtle, but I like it.

This schematic looks pretty close to what you are going for. a few different component values, but it doesn't use a transistor.

Or try this. Even more simple and less components.

Another method for doing a search is to search images. at the top of the page on google you can switch from web to images or video, maps, news, etc.  I typed in lm386 and then clicked on "images" and there are a ton of schematics to look at.
