I feel that the correct wiring is that the other end of 1M resistor attached to base of Q1 that currently wrongly shows as connected to ground is actually connected to Vcc only when there is no input jack inserted in the pedal.<br /><br />Then the Q1 acts like a mute switch.<br /><br />Vivek MEHTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07254669684601617746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481402030233340127.post-9549510111754066852020-04-09T00:51:53.965-04:002020-04-09T00:51:53.965-04:00Can I use this for bass?
