Ok here it goes this is going to be long 
i have three questions in mind:
<----*DEEP BREATH*
1)I am trying to make a portable amplifier based on the LM386 chip but im not sure how to do it, I also want distortion effect and tone control (if you can define how tone is affected with the different components please do). do i REALLY have to use a chip besides the LM386?
*edit: I want distortion(overdrive) only in certain occasions only, but i also love CLEAR non distorted sound how can i achieve this with the LM386?*
2) anyone have good schematics
3) What is the difference between tone control and an EQ
