I recently built the Jump Drive, (build report). I think it works as it should (and sounds pretty darn good), except for the bass pot seems to have no effect (or the tiniest effect when moved from one end of the sweep to the other; an effect so minimal as to possibly be just my imagination).
This is a fairly new project, and there is no schematic. So I'm not really sure where to start debugging. The marketing copy for the LPD Sixty8 says, "the Bass control is pre-clipping", which to me implies it's a Tommy/Timmy-style bass control, basically the pot acting as a variable resistor to form an RC filter to ground (or virtual ground). In other words, if my assumption is correct, there should be a very small number of components involved in this bass control, and if I knew what those were, I could focus my attention on them.
Anyway, open open to any ideas or suggestions!
