badgerific Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Hey up for sale is the BYOC orange distortion pedal I recently made, it's a clone of the DS-1 pedal by boss. This pedal is far superior to the current boss model though due to it being built using the same chip as the 80's DS-1 pedals but the addition of the pre gain knob and the mods I have added, which make it more versatile and more useable IMO. The mods I added were to first change the clipping diodes from the stock ones to LED's to provide a "marshall crunch" sort of sound. I also changed a resistor to increase the amount of gain available, then I changed the value of a capacitor to cut some of the shrill highs from the sound. Next I swapped two capacitors around to provide a fuller mid range, this makes the pedal sound more full and will allow it to cut through a mix better than the stock model. Finally I modded the transistor gain stage to be the same as a big muff to produce a fuller bass response. This pedal is also true bypass. I have made some sound clips using my cheap ibanez copy guitar through a stock DS-1 and my clone through my cube 30 bass amp recorded direct into protools. It's not a great quality but it shows the differences between the pedals quite clearly.

Looking for £75 posted for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
