True Bypass Little Big Muff? (+more)

[bobbletrox]

I was just looking at Tobias Karlsson's Little Big Muff schem and wondered how it could be changed to true bypass.  Am I right to assume that you'd just leave out the 4.7uF cap and the connection to the switch after it, and rewire the input and remaining output like any other true bypass pedal?

Another thing I was curious about is whether changing the 1uF  electrolytics to 0.1uF and the 0.1uF cap near the tone section to a 1uF would improve the tone like it does in the regular transistor Big Muff.  Also, would it be possible to use half of a better quality dual opamp like a burr brown for the second IC?

thanks.

Ii agree...I've looked at that schematic for months now.
 I think it would come in real handy for repairing a factory LBM.
 I never really sorted out what goes where on there...exactly, and have never started a LBM...as much as I've been wanting to...
 I tried a BM, seemed muddy...maybe it wasnt' exactly 'right'.
 I'm just leary of schematics with patches [substitute areas], and figure it's easier to redraw one than it is to identify questions about uncertainties, then have someone formulate words that explain that...please don't bother...it didn't do it for me in the past...
 I think the schem probly scares ppl like me away from attempting it, more ppl probably would if it was drawn withoug [what would be to DIYers'] the 'useless' tone switch, and bypass buffer...

I would submit for [de-bug and] approval, a Lbig Muff schematic drawn with the DIY'er in mind...without the 'insert schematic patch here' notes, then build it.
 But I don't get pics on here ..
