I want to discuss this pedal. The Kit Rae site says this is basically a triangle with the HP tone cap changed from 4nF to 330 pF
When I've tried this (I had a Ram's Head to socket this in but still), it sounded absolutely awful. There is a video somewhere of Wren and Cuff stating that due to the cheapness of the parts, they've ended up drifting over the years and that's what makes them special. I can't find anywhere else on the internet that would suggest values to start changing. Any thoughts? This cap change has the effect of shifting the HP filter up REALLY high, so maybe you would also need to shift the LP filter higher to get a little bit more frequencies?
I think this one sounds very interesting:
