Members Woody777 Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 If you replace caps and ICs in an old pedal with caps and ICs of the exact same values (but maybe different brands) is the pedal still stock? I'm talking about old pedals that need the parts replaced after 20+ years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NITEFLY182 Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 Repairs and mods are different I think but its not like these are 50s corvettes or anything. If you repair a pedal that has a broken part, I dont see anything wrong with calling it stock. As long as you aren't doing this to old tube screamers or holy grail pedals its probably not a big deal. Replacing a burnt cap in an original phase 90 is nothing. Swapping out all the op amps so you can use them in your BYOC copy is different though.

Members Saturnine10 Posted March 22, 2008 Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 I'd say its stock if you do that.. Not original, but stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Woody777 Posted March 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 22, 2008 Cool... just curious. I've got an old Boss PH1-r phaser that needed some parts replaced. I'm not planning on selling it (at least not for now) but was curious to hear people's thoughts. I agree... I think it's still stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members spaceshot Posted March 23, 2008 Members Share Posted March 23, 2008 you can call it stock, if you explain to them the basics of electrolytic caps and the price of now rare IC's, hell they may be confident in buying from you, or they could fear you are a hack with a soldering iron and a broken pedal you want to unload. Be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
