    Spent 2 hours on google looking for some how-to or DIY True bypass for a russian small stone. I'm caving.

    Anyone have a link for such a thing?


    Thanks in advance :)

    How recent is the make?

    All Russian EHX have true bypass as of 2006, maybe 2007.

    It can be done, but with the russians it's a little harder since the jacks are pcb mounted and you need to cut a couple of the traces.
