Help with pedal switch please

[sonolink]

I emailed JHS again asking them to unveil Q3's identity. I hope they'll answer this time...
I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks again for your precious and kind help

Cheers

I've been looking around for a schematic of any other contemporary JHS pedal to see if it uses the same LED switching scheme, but unfortunately, none of the ones I've found so far bothered to include it.

You really could just forget about the transistor and rewire it to just work directly from the switch like in any typical pedal. There's no reason why that shouldn't work.
