Description: Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive Mod Kit In addition to Step by Step Full Color Instructions, this Kit contains all Parts needed in addition to Solder & Desolder Braid ~ a Soldering Iron and Phillips Screw Driver are the only tools required to complete the mod. Below are specifications detailing each part of the Mod process. The stock pedal has a fairly good tone, but it tends to sound thin, as well as lack gain and clarity. This Mod addresses these issues to achieve a really Organic Overdrive Tone usually reserved for boutique pedals costing far more. Domestic shipping is FREE for any number of kits. International shipping is $13.00 for any number of parts to any country. Important Note: This kit only works for the SD-1 with the full sized circuit board ~ the latest SD-1's have a super tiny circuit board for which this kit is not designed. Our Kits: What sets us apart from our competitors is that we have the absolute best instructions available anywhere, which are emailed before the kit even arrives. Our instructions employ high definition photographs in a step by step format that's logical and super easy to follow. Additionally we offer free follow up support and are ready to assist in any way we can. Our Mods: Because the SD-1 is such a simple yet effective circuit, a number of the Mods we perform are the same as Keeley, Analogman, etc. Some of the individual Mods we have in common are: Better Gain Mod, Better Clean Boost Mod, Brown Mod, Better Bass Mod, Better Highs Mod. We also perform some Fidelity Mods wherein we upgrade the inferior stock parts that are the most crucial to the signal path. The main thing that sets us apart is that our prices are substantially lower and we offer a 14 day money back guarantee. All in all our service is second to none ~ just check our feedback. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Video: To shoot the video we used an inexpensive digital camera. The rig consists of a stock Laguna guitar and a stock VHT Special 6 watt tube amp. Just past the 4 minute mark we plugged in an Ibanez DE7 delay for some ambiance since the amp does not have reverb. Video Led Mod Better Gain Mod Clearer Tone Mod Fat Mod Better Bass Mod Better Highs ModBrown Mod Clean Boost Mod Led Mod This Mod changes the low density stock red Led to a high density Super Bright Yellow Led which not only looks great, but is also easier to see. Fat Mod Tube Screamers tend to have weak bass response so the stock pedal can sound fairly thin. This Mod changes the low quality stock .1uf polyester capacitor to a superior metal film capacitor of a slightly different value, thereby restoring full bass response to the tone. Brown Mod This Mod changes the value of the output resistors back from a 470 ohm Carbon Film to a 100 ohm which allows the full spectrum of bass frequencies to pass the output stage. Also, by using a 100k ohm output resistor, the stock pedal allows a lot of high end noise to enter the signal. Lowering the value from 100k to 10k sets a lower threshold reduces the hiss. Better Gain Mod This Mod changes the value of the 4.7k gain resistor to a 1k resistor, which increases the gain. The diodes are also stacked and modified in a very specific way, adding both clarity and gain. Clearer Tone Mod This Mod changes low quality stock polyester capacitors to higher quality Metal Film capacitors which makes for a clearer tone throughout. Better Bass Mod This Mod changes the low quality electrolytic capacitors to high quality Metal Film Capacitors which tightens up the tone by keeping the bass from distorting. Better Highs Mod This Mod changes the low quality electrolytic capacitors to high quality Metal Film Capacitors which focuses and cleans up the tone.Better Clean Boost Mod This Mod changes the resistor that lowers the threshold of the input, which causes the pedal to clean up better when the drive control is on zero.
