Members Belt Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 Just wondering if you've modded the Melxowtone... and what did you do. I haven't modded mine yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members melx Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 I think someone did the 'bright' mod, but mine's fine with my set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belt Posted June 25, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 I didn't want to cut mine either. It's more of a novelty for me though. I don't use it except to mess around with at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rileykill Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 I haven't done any mods ... I sure would like an on/off switch for the battery but I'm a retard at soldering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members letsgocoyote Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 all the mods don't require any cutting of original wires, and they dont touch the pcb whatsoever. just some desoldering, and adding new parts/wires. an on off switch would be very easy riley, if you want help PM me. all you need is a little toggle switch and a couple bits of wire.

Members TweedBassman Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 i'm probably gonna mod mine with a volume knob that clicks off to save the battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members veil Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 I thought about a 9V jack. Also thinking about turning up the gain trimpot a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I shouldn't be such a {censored} ... I just know I'm gonna jack up the enclosure or something if I decide to start drilling for a switch.

Members MathiasWilliam Posted June 25, 2008 Members Share Posted June 25, 2008 Mine still seems to quiet, compared to the bypassed signal the volume drops a lot, and i have the trim pot on full..might try a few things, However, it sounds awesome even if it was quiet, great for noise!

I was talking about cutting the enclosure. Wires can be replaced. But the enclosure is sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MakuseruSukotto Posted February 10, 2009 Members Share Posted February 10, 2009 Can someone post the mod list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members letsgocoyote Posted February 10, 2009 Members Share Posted February 10, 2009 i cant find the original mod info, but if there is a specific mod you want to do i will walk you through it. 1.dc jack2.3pdt with led3. gain control4. briteness/voicing mods5. volume control.6. lpf tone control all mods are at your own risk though. if youw ant external knobs you can always put them on the side so as not to harm the graphic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Crxsh Posted February 20, 2009 Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 I like my Melxowtone as is...... and especially on bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belt Posted February 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 The only "mod" I've done is drilled a small hole where I'd normally want a DC jack. I put a rubber grommet in it, and put a longer battery snap in it so the snap end is outside of the enclosure. I like it with batteries, but I hate taking 4 screws out to change batteries. I guess that's why on most of the pedals I build for myself, I don't use battery snaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Small Stone Posted February 20, 2009 Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 I was thinking about making a small hole so I could use one of these One-Spot Battery Clip Converter: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belt Posted February 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 I put my hole where I'd put a DC jack anyway. That way, I could put a DC jack in it and not "ruin" the enclosure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
