Boss DS-1 mods

Anders	Boss DS-1 mods I'm planning to do a mod to DS-1 so it suits better for bass. I need more grit in the lower register and I've tried assymetrical clipping with LED's and it sounds quite good. But I'm looking for a bit more grit, maybe a little harsher in the bass. I've tried to increase the value of almost every cap in the signal chain in order to get better bass response without any remarkable result. Also, what's the best way increase the output level (without affecting the bypass signal)?
