Best grid traces for 12B4 PCB

Maybe it was not clear but I offered help of some sorts to make it happen. Analog design can hardly be compared to the modular approach of Arduino I think but OK. If you set the goal high i.e. to design a well functioning device with all bells and whistles that can actually be used you are learning by doing. Enough members here that can steer you through the vast plains of analog design.

Have the thread title changed to "designing a 12B4a line stage PCB" and I assure many will assist you 😀 Actual use can be twofold: a post DAC stage and/or high quality line stage/low gain preamp. Exactly what many need instead of high gain line stages that more often than not lack essential basic things. So the design might be a desired item others may want to build to learn from...
