contour tilt tone control mods on stangray?

[dubs]

I recently built a stangray clone and added a 2nd maz GT preamp on the other side of the PI.
I'm wanting to tweak the stangray tone control which like a tilt / conjunctive filter control. To me it has too much bottom end when wound back. Especially so since I've beefed up the PI output caps to give the gt side a bit more body.
Any thoughts? I attached a schematic below.

Try this:
1)Change th tone pot to 250k
2)Change the .0047 cap to .01 AND add a 22k series resistor
3)Change the treble cap to 150p

This will reduce bass and add upper mids. Much more conducive to electric guitar.

Awesome thanks! I'll give it a go.

I gave this a go today. Didn't have a 250k tone pot but had a 500k on hand.
It definitely reduced the bass nicely and put some mids back in. It was too boomy and scooped in the mids
as stock. Thanks!


It does still have this very hi-fi high end which I still need to tweak out.

Try lifting the 47p cap. If that's not enough try reconnecting it across the outer lugs of the volume control.

Hi Chuck,
I removed the 47pf cap and also upped the cut control value from 0.0047Uf to 0.01uf. That seemed to do the trick. It's sounding good now. Thanks!
