Try a voltage drop crash.  There's plenty of information about how to do that if you use the search tab up on the top of the page.

Just recently finished one of these. Added an overdrive control, feedback control, and a crash button. I also revamped the case graphics. Check it out here:

You can find a diagram there as well.

The crash button simply shorts the two leads of the clock crystal. In my model, the clock crystal was a blue blob near the CPU. The feedback control feeds the output from the headphone jack to the input of the amplifier chip via a 100K potentiometer. I'm not sure which pin I used for the input, experiment and you are sure to find it. The distortion can be achieved by connecting the middle pin of the drive transistor closest to the CPU to various points via a 100K potentiometer. Again, experiment here as my notes are not complete.
