A couple of people have asked about this so I thought I would show it . I built up a dual buffer circuit and mounted it inside the pedal. And put a power jack where the tone control once sat . There is no loss of tone or max volume and it can be powered by a "Boss" type power supply or even a battery . Very low power drain . I'm not selling anything it's just what I did to make what I already had work better for me .

Yeah, I like it John. Nice and clean. I like EB pedals once I can get past the 250K volume pot issues. The old EB pedal angle works well for both pedal steel and standing up for guitar. To my tastes, many PSG oriented pedals don't feel very comfortable to me for standing up with my guitar.
I also think it's great that you used a low-drain circuit that can use a battery. If there's one thing I do NOT want, it is to deal with external power for a volume pedal. |

| Looks great, too. Did you build the circuit board, or adapt an available unit? |

The 1st one I did I used a board from General Guitar Gadgets . Then I sourced one from another place that was closer to what I wanted to do . AMZ circuit boards . Like I said earlier it's not a secret what I did I'm just doing my own little twist to the design .
