Help with modding a Boss pedal

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a pedal that i want to add the low end back into. i know you can just change a little resistor, but i dont know which one. I posted the schematics up and no one helped.

Heres my question:

When looking for the resistor to change for more bass should i follow the input wire and try each resistor out as i come to it?

would help if you said which pedal it was. You'd probably have more success putting it in the loop of a blender pedal!

1) a link to the schem would be handy here.

2) the first thing to check is if there is an input/output capacitor that cuts the low end. If there is a cap in the beginning of the circuit which is 0.47 you should change it to a 1.0 and that could help. The same goes for the end of the circuit.

Its a Boss PW-2

I thought that was the size i just wasnt sure. Could i just make a solder bridge and not replace the resistor?

Here is the schem.
