Looks like you worked out your treble boost issue on the Klon, congrats.  What value cap(s) did you settle on?

6n8 - not much of a difference sound wise, but I didn't want to get too extreme.

That's the value I normally use, although not switched.  Next time you make one, try the bass contour mod (10kB pot in series with R19, reduce R19 to 1.5k), it works well with single coils.

Coincidentally, I was just getting ready to build a new stand-alone Klon for my own use, so I may just try this out. Thanks!
