interesting. I stand corrected!

With the OBEL, one would be before effects the other after. I have no idea which one Jerry used.Wow that never once occurred to me but the logic makes sense! Putting the tone into the vol in.
I spent most of 2020 figuring out how to wire my guitar like Tiger (more like SSS wolf with OBEL but I used the tiger schematics) so that’s why I said the tone all goes through the blade.
25K vol pedal at the end of a non-OBEL buffered system would work the same. I think I just like the fanciness and the kill switch.
