Hendrix Wah: True Bypass Mod

I'm clearly in pedalboard mode. I've ripped that puppy apart 20 times in the last 20 days.

It's almost perfect now :shock:

:grin:

I've been looking, but I have not been able to locate the true bypass mod instructions for my Hendrix Wah anywhere. I've never done this before, so the instructions have to be drop dead simple.

Any good info or web links would be appreciated :cool:

Well, this doesn't exactly help me out, but it's a start.

you need to disconnect 2 wires. one goes from the input to the .01uF cap on the board (the one connected to the tip of the input jack). The other goes from the 100k pot/.22uF to the Output. the switch will go between jacks and the board, possibly in the middle of the wires.

There is a DPDT switch in the pedal that is not shown on the schematic. It shoud have 6 lugs on the back, arranged in 2 rows of 3.
nothing---lconnectl nothing
---in jack l---------l out jack
board In l---------lBoard Out

wire the top 2 together.
wire one of the middle ones to the wire from the input jack, the other=output jack.

connect the bottom 2 to the wires coming in/out of the board.

Top/bottom doesn't matter on the switch, so choose one.
