Does anybody have this? I'd like to make some changes to my Boss OD-1. I made a few a couple months back, but lost the schematic and layout. I want to add a bit more bass and maybe slightly more distortion.

Same mods apply since the circuits are virtually identical.

Didn't realize these were so closely related - my OD-1 sounds very weak and thin compared to a Tubescreamer.

Anyone got a diagram? whatdaya say, CD - can you go 3 for 3? :D

Just look at the schematic and tweak the values to your heart's content. There's really not much that isn't covered in the Tubescreamer article. I would get started by replacing the .0047uf cap with something larger, say .1uf. That will bring the bass response up, but it may muddy the tone as well.
