controlling pedal volume in fx loop

[Greg M.]

I have a Guyatone TR-3 trem that I run through my amp's effects loop.  It sounds fine but it gives a volume boost that I hate.  Is there a way I can turn the volume down after the pedal and before the amp to equalize the overall volume?  I've seen a pedal that is basically a volume pot and would probably work but it's too pricey for me.  Is there a simple way I could build my own?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

MXR Micro Amp might be a solution. Pretty simple build.

Why not put two resistors inside the pedal that act like an internal fixed volume control?

R. G., how and where in the pedal would a novice such as myself add the resistors?  Is it relatively easy to do?
