ive built this pedal once and really liked it with bass.now,for round two im building one for my bass player and would like to adjust it for bass.I was thinking on increasing the decoupling caps to 1 uf.Besides that i have read a thread that suggests increasing the voice cap.theres also another method that was already deleted by adm and i couldnt see it.a good alternative to the voice cap would be great since i believe the magic in this circuit lies on the voice section a far as I rem
ember.The other mod refferred to the tone and the Timmy pedal.anyone,Brian!? :)

I'd stick with the voice cap and the output cap. The input cap should be big enough with the biasing network to not cut any freqs from a 4-string.

Oh, you might want to go up to 2.2uF on the output cap.

Won't changing the voice cap mess with the voice response.From what I remember when the voice was turned up i really liked the gritt I could get out of it, won't that be affected!?
This is why I would like to know about the other modd possibility...
