Trimpots in BOSS pedals are always single turn. I have never come across a multi turn potentiometer. In my opinion the potentiometer should be of the biggest possible size, as these are more precise due to the wider path of the carbon track. This makes adjustments a lot easier.

I want to do that in the way that is described in the service manual. However, it reminds me to ask: what trimpots would you recommend for this? The info on the 3 trimpots is also totally missing from the manual. Are they single or multi turn, for example?
Pepe already answered about the trimpots being single turn. I don't know which one would be better.

All right, thanks!
