Input gain structure



This is my first time  writing in, and I might as well mention that I play,
sound process,
and loop didgeridoo. I've used a JamMan for years, and have recently
switched to an
Echoplex, which I'm very happy with, except for the gain structure: I find
the input gain too
sensative, after I 've run through my mic pre-amp and sound processor. As
per the answer in
the FAQ,  I'll be changing the resistors involved, but I have a question: 
Must I use the suggested 1%
metal film resistors, or will 5% metal film resistors do the trick? My
elecronic repairman
says he is quite certain that the 5% will work, and wants to try them
because he has them available 
and they are cheaper.   Anyone out there have any experience with this, or
even changing the
resistors at all ( is is easy to do)? Quick replys will be greatly
appreciated, as this repair 
is scheduled to happen soon because of a gig next week. 

Thanks,    Daniel
