Members Guitarist4life Posted January 14, 2009 Members Share Posted January 14, 2009 How do they compare to the newer korean pedals? I mean, is there really a big tone difference between? I want to buy a used ds-1 to modify and saw those higher priced "vintage" ones on ebay and was wondering if its worth the $$. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=280302006147 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members melx Posted January 14, 2009 Members Share Posted January 14, 2009 they are only worth more from a 'collectors' point of view and if you are planning on doing mods I wouldn't even consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rushfan Posted January 14, 2009 Members Share Posted January 14, 2009 they are only worth more from a 'collectors' point of view and if you are planning on doing mods I wouldn't even consider it. This. Once you mod it, you'll devalue it from the collector's view. you're better off getting a new/used one for ~$20 and mod that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members justintee Posted January 15, 2009 Members Share Posted January 15, 2009 refer to a recent thread where a couple of folk think that no significant audio difference should be paid for with big bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members radonballoon Posted January 15, 2009 Members Share Posted January 15, 2009 i've a/b'd several jap/taiwan boss pedals and found only delays to really have any difference. worst case buy a 20 dollar ds1 from somebody here (there's at least 2 floating around at that price) and buy the vintage and a/b it. you'll always be able to flip the vintage one if it doesn't work out.

Members Sardocasm Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Just because something is vintage, doesn't always mean it is good. I didn't think things from the 80's were even considered vintage... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guitarist4life Posted January 16, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 yeah, its probably not worth it to buy a japanese Ds1 to mod.I just want to buy ds-1 to mod the heck out of it.. I'll probably just get a taiwanese one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
