All of the Dr. Boogie schems are true bypass. It's all in the offboard wiring.

You probably WILL NOT find a schematic or even a layout of the Dr. Boogie WITH TRUE BYPASS.

You can adapt ANY circuit with an Input, Output, and an LED for true bypass with a 3PDT switch like this one:

of course, if you do not want an LED, you can always just use a DPDT like this one:

It is how you wire it up to the switch that makes it "True Bypass"

Just use the Search function at the top of this forum and type in "True Bypass" and I am sure you will find A LOT of info on it.

Good Luck  ;D

In all seriousness, I think you should be starting with something this and using it to learn how true bypass works and how all the parts fit into the enclosure: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/component/virtuemart/?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage-ask.tpl&product_id=159&category_id=7


If you really want to start with the Dr Boogey, you can order the PCB here (it's called 'Chunk Chunk'): http://www.madbeanpedals.com/projects/index.html

If you go with the Dr Boogey, you'll need to buy the components separately, an enclosure at least as big as a 1590BB and drill it yourself, 5 or 6 pots, a mono jack, a stereo jack, a battery snap and/or DC adapter jack, wire, a 3PDT switch, an LED with a resistor, AND you'll have to figure out how to wire all that up. I REALLY recommend doing the kit first and learning how all this stuff fits together and what rolling your own kit entails before attempting something as complex as a Dr Boogey right from the beginning.
