Members mach5rider Posted July 15, 2008 Members Share Posted July 15, 2008 Anyone have any ideas on modding a DOD Grunge Pedal? I've got one and it's barely useable. I've seen kits for modding them on ebay - anyone tried one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Saturnine10 Posted July 15, 2008 Members Share Posted July 15, 2008 I think the best mod is the trashcan mod Just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mach5rider Posted July 16, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yeah, I could get maybe $10 on ebay - I figure it's a good candidate for a mod - if I screw it up, no loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mikeman Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 Keep it for the chassis/switch/pots and find a pedal you like and get the schematic. Then make it and put it in that chassis. I have an old chorus and I am going to make a some overdrive or boost with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mach5rider Posted July 18, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 So, this thing isn't worth modding - only re-using a few parts? hmmm...any suggestions for a good first pedal build? I'm thinking maybe a Tremolo, Compressor, rat clone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~Abstract~ Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 The "Loud/Butt/Face/Grunge" Grunge pedals are surprisingly good. I've had several over the years. But I talk ALL of them down till I find more on Ebay. They do Tool-esque sounds wonderfully. The "Low/High" grunge pedals sound like azz. And are the only ones manufactured since mid-90's.

Members mach5rider Posted July 18, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 Mine says "loud/low/high/grunge" - I've used it for some lead work before when I want something that just sounds overly distorted with high end...but for most of the stuff i do it's not useable - I'd consider modding it or building a complet new pedal in there if that's all it's good for.
