Post by James Ingram »

anybody had any dealings with this stomp box on how they sound. i bought dead one from m.f. clearance center other day. it,s high end o.d. pedal that does,nt have any output when switched on. for only 10.00 valued at sale price of 160.00 i could afford to send it out to see about getting it fixed if i can,t get job done. any recommendations on who could get job done in advance. Thanks James

well pedal lives again. somebody forgot to put a capacitor on circuit board. so i took educated guess from other caps values and stuck one in. seems to work fine . i got lucky. James

Congrats! Good find.
Want to review it after you've gotten to know it for a while? I've heard widely varying reports on these. The guy's website is kind of funny.

Thanks Paul I,m no Tech Guru but i get by. I knew there was suppose to be a cap. in missing place since it was marked C3. did,nt take much to figure that out. just not sure of exact value it should have been. 2 others were marked 100 REC. so i put 103k i had lying around in there. i could play around with it.if i owned cap. subtitution box which i don,t. so it,ll stay like it is for now.

You could contact the company through their web site. I don't have the URL handy. They're supposed to be good pedals.
