Range Maistro

Rev.2.Aug.21.2004

Build a Dallas Range Master or Brian May Treble Booster workalike with PNP (Ge or Si) transistors
using NEGATIVE GROUND so its compatible with the power supply of the rest of your pedals.
Millenium bypass (R.G. Keen) added to the board for LED with DPDT footswitch. Transistor socket is
highly recommended. DPDT bypass switch wiring shown on the layout. Registered trademarks are
