Has anyone tried this really simple 3 band eq layout?

It seems a little too simple..would it work?

Hmm... seems like there would be a big volume drop.

Maybe throw a clean booster after that, and see what you get.

I'm curious.

I figured as much too.  Maybe put this in, in conjunction with an amz mosfet booster?

Its passive...You would need so kind of make up stage.

Mosfet boost or SHO would work nice me thinks. Both have tons of output and are relatively "clean".

Cool. So if I throw this in the same box as the mosfet boost, before the mosfet boost circuit, I can have a nice 3band eq/boost pedal?

Do you have a corresponding schem for that? I'm trying to draw it out, and it seems that layout could be simplified a bit more, honestly.

For instance, p3 lugs 3 and 2 are connected by two separate wires running to the board...

There are a few others.

Edit: nevermind. It's the Fender tonestack. It is a more complex layout than it needs to be, though.

Edit again lol: it based off of that, but slightly different. I'm half asleep I guess.

I see....I must try it out though.  Wouldn't be hard to put in any pedal, really.
