You could try looking at the schematic here for how to implement a low-cut switch.

hi; i don't know if you are still looking for suggestions? and i assume that your zvex has a pcb that is easy enuff to work with. But a simple and inexpensive way to reduce low hz is to use smaller value caps. You could try reducing the value of the coupling cap C6. that is a polarized cap so replace with something that has positive and negative leads and try one that is at least 1/2 the value of the 1 uf cap.

OJ is correct but not the only way, just the easiest however an electrolytic is not needed and in fact shouldn't be used anyway. I hate e-lytics in the signal path and they are way too high in value anyway. They are only used in mass produced pedals because they are much less money to use.
To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.
