software

I was wondering specifically about modded ts9 or 808.

Any other pedal mod are welcome.

Is there a website with info about do it yourself mods. I'm very handy with a soldering iron,or torch in my case.

Thanks

from : localhost/advertise those on our site, they're not free but seem pretty comprehensive

the only other pedal mod sites I've seen on the net were for Cry Baby wah's, not just for true bypass though - things like 'vocal mods', gain mods etc

Talk to our own Stratdeluxer97(John Spina), a master modder right here on the forum.

Yep. John has modded a bunch of my pedals and, IMO, he gets the best tone out of TS-9's that I've ever heard. He's modded a few for me and also a few Vox wah wahs. John seems to like alot of the same tones I like. Lew

Defently John.

I got my Sparkle Drive back from Robert Keeley and am extremely happy with the results. There's more usuable gain, and the effect is much more natural and transparent. Read his website regarding the mod....it actually does what he claims it to do.

from AnalogMan modded my Small Stone so the volume doesn't drop when engaged. Great work from him as well.

Thanks for the nice compliments guys....Also check the price you'll pay on your mods from whoever you decide on..

modded quite a few of these pedals and to date,it is my absolute favorite TS clone...It is a TS in every way with the added clean control...

Just one question John: what exactly are your qualifications to be doing this work??? Sorry...don't answer that...that's just a joke for the old timers here!

Guys: John's the best! He has great ears and great technique and he made my old and new Vox wahs sound as good or better than my Fulltone Clyde and my TS-9's sound as good or better than my TS-808.

STRATDELUXER97 is the man you seek. Very friendly, knowledgable, and his mods sound awesome. I just got my Sparkledrive back and I have one of his DS-1's and I will post a review in a couple of days after I put them through their paces. My initial thoughts are that these pedals definitely will hang with the quot;boutiquequot; models and then some.

I'll vouch for Johns work. I've got 3 pedals he's modded and another one coming back to me as we speak.

He actually convinced me to send him my TS9DX, which I was actually going to unload on ebay for probably a loss. I figured for the bargain price I had very little to lose.

I'm glad I did; his mods made the pedal TOTALLY usable. Like, all four modes were usable. I almost hate taking the pedal to gigs because I know the sounds that are in there and the temptation to mess with settings when I should just be playing can be a bit much.

I wouldn't hesitate to send just about any pedal I know he mods to him for work JUST on reputation withough the need to hear clips or descriptions. I'd totally buy blind from the guy. His reputation among fanatics like myself has been well earned around here.

Well John, I've got some things for you to
quot;fixquot;. Pm's your way.

Thanks guy!

The only person I have dealt with is Analogman, and he was great.

I don't charge you guys enough to do repairs and I pretty much only do mods to working pedals...I just can't spend like 2 hours or more diagnosing a pedal,especially something like a $40 Boss DS1....

If it's something simple like a bad switch or pot I'm ok with that,but please no DOA pedals!

John Spina , Analogman and Keeley are all great! I`m gonna give the nod to John since he`s right here on the forums with us and always PMs you with details on your pedals, his mods are fantastic. Great service from all three but we`ve got a little token here on the forums in John Spina!

Thanks Rich.....To date I have done more mods for Rich than quot;anyonequot; period....This guy sends me pedals often!

Do they all still actually work Rich? LOL

Oh they work! Due to me being such a great uncle my nephew has a Spina TS-9,DS-1 and SD-1. He`s 16 , plays metal and doesn`t have a lot of cash so I try to help him out. I tell ya , a Spina SD-1 through a cranked JCM 800 playing quot;Sweet Leaf quot; sounds pretty ....LOUD!

I guess as long as your family tree grows,the amount of needed modded pedals will grow also?
