According to my schematic (I've noted the values I changed): volume 4M A (changed to 1M A) treble 250K L middle 25K L bass 1M A presence 25K L (changed to 5K L) A = audio taper L = linear taper If you can't gig with your YBA-1 because of volume problems, try using your volume control. On all of my guitars, there is a 150k resistor and a .001uf cap across the input and wiper of the volume controls to keep them bright at lower volume settings. It sounds ten times better than using a Tube Screamer IMO.
