Hi guys,

So I got this Vintage Distortion pedal and been wanting to mod it into a Jumbo Tonebender, I'm a total noob so first time trying to mod things out.

Afaik just removing the D4, D3 and C6 and the whole Traditional BMP gain recovery transistor stage includes Q1, R4, R3. So my question is, after desoldering, do you have to jump wires or something else on the board or just leave it and it'll work on its own?

Thank you so much, hopefully I get some tips on my first time!
