Hi all!
I'm in the mood to tinker!

I'd like to be able to hit the Klone side with the Boost.
As it is now, the boost circuit comes after the Klone.

Is it possible to "reroute" the Boost side of the Silver Pony II so it is first in the circuit?

If it is possible, would I be able to re-work the already assembled PCB or would it be best to start with a fresh one?

Thanks!

~Troy

It's very possible, and the only thing you'd need to do is to change wire connections on the two footswitches. I don't have a diagram for it, but I put together a post showing how to do exactly the same thing with the old BYOC Overdrive 2 kit, which also had both a boost and an overdrive circuit, with the boost following the OD. The post shows you how to "hardwire" the boost in front of the OD, but also includes a way to make the effect order switchable, using a 3PDT toggle switch (though a 3PDT footswitch could also be used if you don't find foregoing a battery in the SPII). Here's the link:

If you have additional questions, we're right here....
