clauster Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Are you any good at soldering? Monte Allums does a range of mods that you could do yourself for less than half the price of getting these guys to do it. Otherwise selling the CS-3 and putting the money the mod would cost could get you a nice brand new comp like the Budda Chakra, or a potentially better used EBS multi-comp on here.

clauster Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Or add a few quid more and get this -[url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/246901-mxr-m87-bass-compressor-l99-posted/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/246901-mxr-m87-bass-compressor-l99-posted/[/url] That's one hell of a comp pedal for <£100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Never picked a soldering iron up.. The pedal was given to me so the price of the mod isnt putting me that far behind.. Spending 100 sovs on that MXR would though...

JapanAxe Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I modded my own CS3 using tips I found online, making it much more bass-friendly. I also had a Monte Allums CS3, and that was maybe quieter than the original, but still left your sound a bit thin and over-squished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuco Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Ironically, the CS-3 never arrived. My mate in the states sent it Fed Ex (with an old iphone 4) but customs gotta hold of it asking for £££££ (even though both said items are s/h GIFTS!!) So Mr clauster, seems you were right; I should have picked up the MXR.. Oh well whatever, never mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
