Modding the TS side on a route 66...

So far I've changed the dioded for 1N4002s and the IC for a TL072... but the pedal still has too much of that high mid spike for me. The bass boost is really cool though.

Anyway on a TS/SD1 circuit, if i remember right the main culprit is a .022uf cap right..? Where is that little bugger on the Route 66? I haven't been able to look around, though I'm still a relative noob...

Thanks a lot if you can help me!

they probably use a different value than 0.022, take a look at _where_ the 0.022 cap is on a TS (in the schematic) and try and find the same one on the route 66.

also look at '"Refine" your pedal and smooth the tone out' on the following page.

Wow cool website thanks! I'll do that once I get back to the Burgh. I'm guessing I'd need to find an easy landmark such as a pot's lug and trace back from there using the schematics?
