I have built a Rangemaster clone from geofex called the austin treble
booster. It had great instructions for putting together the terminal strip
part, but I can't seem to get the switch wired properly. Has anyone built
one of these? If you could send me a picture of your wiring from the
terminal strip to the switch and pot, it would be a huge help. Thanks!

Do you have the schematic or a link to it?

It's a pdf, and it's here: http://www.geofex.com/Article_Folders/Rangemaster/atboost.p
df
It doesn't have a schematic, but it has instructions for building on a
terminal strip. I did that, but I can't figure the wiring for a switch. I
have a carling dpdt.
Thanks!!!!

I would like to have true bypass. I've tried the diagram above, but it
can't be right. The instructions call for the negative battery lead to be
attached to the switch.

| That would be a ground right... Attach to the ground on the switch. ____________________

Patatrick!Go to the General Guitar Gadgets site then
Projects-Boosters/Routers-Rangemaster and you will get a correct schematic
,Parts Layout and Wiring Diagram.

Patatrick,
There IS a schematic on that pdf file, on page 2. Look closely at it,
compare it with your terminal strip and you can figure out how to connect
the terminal strip to the switches. That's how I did it, and I used the
exact same instructions to build my Rangemaster.
It's a Treble Booster or a Hiss Booster depending on what Ge transistor you
use, I've tried 5 different transistors of 3 different p/n's, and they all
sound different.
Good luck.
