Hey all. yes I'm new. know the real basics, just first pedal.

I got me one of those infamous Walco 70's effects on eBay, feel free to bash on them, That's why I'm modding it. it's prettymuch a treble booster with a second spdt switch to change to cap going into the transistor. it cuts out the top end, and you boost the bass. Got a cheap transistor too. can't find info... c828, anyone?

I'm wondering if anybody knows a good way to blend the signal to the 2 caps, so I could tweak it more. it's not flexible as is. Or even put in a pot to change the ammount of boost.

I'm also working on depopping the power switch, I saw an article on that. Anybody know where that went?  thanx

Schematic to come, still labeling resistors.   NOOB!!!!
