Members angelhair0 Posted November 22, 2006 Members Share Posted November 22, 2006 Can anyone help with links to companies/nerds who mod pedals? I am pretty satisfied with my pedal setup right now but I am looking to make my stuff sound even better. I am doing some research on pedal modders... anything to make things cleaner. And maybe some mods for added features... whether they are selling kits or they do it themselves as a service. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members angelhair0 Posted November 23, 2006 Author Members Share Posted November 23, 2006 Bump? And BTW, I'm already very familiar with the monteallums.com website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hbar Posted November 23, 2006 Members Share Posted November 23, 2006 Different people mod different pedals. Except the tube screamer. Everybody mods that. Cusack Analogman Keeley are 3 very reputable modders that come to mind immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hbar Posted November 23, 2006 Members Share Posted November 23, 2006 I forgot to add "YOU." There are plenty of mod schematics freely available, including some from the people mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members erksin Posted November 23, 2006 Members Share Posted November 23, 2006 Have you thought about some sort of looping system? You have a pretty long string of pedals there. Clarity might be easier to get without so many pedals in your signal path at one time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm good with technical things and schematics if things are explained clearly... but I suck with a soldering iron because I'm always so damn shaky and trembly. Too much coffee in my diet.

You have a pretty long string of pedals there. Clarity might be easier to get without so many pedals in your signal path at one time... As you probably know by some of my other posts recently, I have been thinking strongly about looping, but to be honest I am not comfortable with looping. Only because I hate eliminating possibilities. Sometimes I may want to kick on pedal A while pedal B is on and if for some reason each of those pedals were on a different route, I'd be screwed. I know that I am suppossed to thougtfully figure out how I want to route things and all of that, but I still feel like I'm limitting myself. I'm afraid of the ONE time I want to turn on a pedal I never thought I'd want to turn on at any given time in loop A, but I can't because of the other effects I have on are currently in loop B.

Then maybe all you need is a good buffer..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mamberg Posted November 24, 2006 Members Share Posted November 24, 2006 Mark Humphrey you should be able to find him (Humphrey Audio) online. I can only vouch for his Badder Monkey mod, but it rocks. He is also a very straight up guy and easy to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MonkeyKnifeFighter Posted November 24, 2006 Members Share Posted November 24, 2006 When it comes to modding pedals (or his name brand pedals, for that matter) I can't say enough good things about Robert Keeley. I own 5 of his modded pedals and and each one is an incredible improvement over stock. And, the customer service is as good as it gets.www.rkfx.com~MkF!"5-11AM Friday only!"

Members SpeedBallBlues Posted November 24, 2006 Members Share Posted November 24, 2006 Great kits at very reasonable prices. I was going to get rid of my bluesdriver until I put his mod kit in it. Now it's really good.http://www.monteallums.com/Product_links.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done the Dyan Comp, CS-3, BD-2, and the GE-7 mods. Going to start doing the Rat2 soon too for a buddy of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
