Thanks for the scheme, I did a mod to make the Bass passive, I never liked that active circuit because it only serves to boost the volume and clip your signal. Its a waste of batteries.

You just need to remove the batery, desolder the OUT from the PHAT POT, and solder together with the IN wire, so it bypass the PHAT booster, they are the yellow and green wires in the scheme. Or just solder the wire from the jack tip to the potentiometer.
