I learn to make true bypass with a 3PDT switch, but I would like to know if I can make a pedal true bypass with a SPST?

I recently buy a lovepedal leslius, (it's right true bypass on the website), so I opened to see whats inside and there is 2 SPST.

so it's a mistake or can I really do true bypass with SPST, if yes how???

thanks




I'm french, sorry for mistakes

You can do true true bypass with an spst using a relay.  You can do good nontrue bypass using a spst and cmos switching.  You can do true bypass with a dpdt, however.
Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words can get you shot

You cannot do true bypass with *only* an SPST.

google "true bypass geofex.com" to find an article on what true bypass is and how it's done.
