Colorsound Power Boost

[Michael P.]

Anyone have a schematic or seen one of these before?

Maybe this, http://bryant02.home.att.net/schematics/overdriverschem.gif
ColorSound OD, parts count looks about right. Couldn't really make out the resistor colors to well from the pic maybe you can.

I don't think that's it; four pots instead of three, which corresponds to the clone on the same site:

So they seem to be two different pedals.

Hmmm, sounds pretty good - and I love that orange case! That's in pretty amazing condition for a Colorsound.

It IS the same pedal - the fourth pot is a "Volume" control - just a 100k pot on the output as usual.

This should explain it.

Thanks Torchy, that certainly explains it. No wonder I hadn't heard of it before. Thanks for the link.

It does look great, doesn't it?
