Paduak I power booster circuit
Does anybody have a circuit diagram and/or PC board layout for the Paduak I booster circuit? The westone site only shows a picture of the bottom of the board.
Has anybody ever tried to reverse engineer the booster circuit from a Paduak I guitar? there are only 10 components on the board, plus a battery for the whole thing. add a mini switch for on/off and a jack to switch off the battery and done!
seems like an easy DIY and a small add-on that could be used in any guitar for a booster circuit.

Sorry - old thread, but it's had no replies.
I too would love to see a circuit diagram for a Paddy power boost circuit.
Don't s'pose anybody has a spare circuit?

This may be a good alternative to the original power boost circuit. Up to 20dB boost.
It also has a Westone style paddle to the switch - which in this case is a real bummer, as paddy guitars used plain switches........
