Bass Wah mathematics

What does a GCB-95 Crybaby + .047uf cap + 270 ohm resistor + 2PDT switch + 10 minutes soldering - a buffer circuit equal?

An awesome true bypass bass wah. Seriously, I had no idea how easy these things are to tweak. Next project, adjustable Q and volume.

I'm guessing here, but is it a 2PDT switch because there's no LED?

You got it. If you can't tell when your wah is on, you have issues.
