*true bypassed w/ LED
*battery clip replaced with 9V jack
*volume control - resistor replaced with 100K pot. allows a pretty big boost when the effect is on if you want.
*sweep toggle - 10uF cap replaced with choice of 12uF or 56uF. 12 is pretty much stock. 56 is pretty close to bass wah territory. the switch ends up being a bass boost almost and makes for a more subtle wah.
*voice control - resistor replaced with 100K pot. basically an effect level control. you can roll of most of it for a really really subtle wah or dime it for the most quack.

it sounds great. i like it.

    That's too much wah for me... hope you can handle all that...
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    Cool... I liked the other pic better though. But I love that sweep toggle option...

    That's bad ass. The toggle really would help with low end funk type envelope filter effects. I bet you are happy with it. Bring on the funk.
