So this is, I think, the third pedal I ever bought. I haven't used it for ages, but the other day I plugged it in for fun and discovered a wealth of sounds hidden inside due to its trim-pots. It sounds pretty decent as a regular old flanger, but when you get it to oscillate and make awful dirty echo sounds it's really a wonderful pedal. So I decided there were a couple of things I want to do to it to make it more usable:
1. Rehouse it in a nicer box
2. Make it true-bypass
3. Make the internal trim-pots external knobs.
4. Give it a standard Boss style 9 volt, but this is optional.
I found this video on youtube of a guy that had done similar mods to his:

So, I know there are several guides related to TBing a pedal, but I've never really found one on trim-pot replacement. Has anyone done this, or can offer a website with ideas on the process? Thanks!
