Xotic EP Booster (Clone)
I built 2 EP Booster pedals, one white one and one raw. As you can see the dips are external switches.
Here is the white one
And the raw one.
Thinking of making a few more becuz i sold both of the above. I found that the pedal added to much bass, thinking of making the mod like below.
just built this one and it sounds great. the only thing is that the bass boost switch didn't really do anything at all. I tried replacing the 100u cap with a 220u, still no difference. then I replaced the 10u on Q1's source with a 1u and put the 100u back in. it works pretty good now, but since this preamp adds low end even with just the 1u cap, i'm thinking about replacing the 1u with a 470n so it'll be more of a flat boost when the fat switch isn't clicked in.
