Go figure. I replaced the 3.9K resistor for the LED and the things is working again. I am selling the PH-1r that I bought as a "replacement" as well as the CS-1 as I am totally content with the CS-3 with Monte allum mod. By the way, anyone want them? The PH-1r has normal paint chips missing but the CS-1 is PERFECT!!! No lie!!! No scratched or paint missing. Immaculate conidtion. I will probably post on eBay. As well as my ME-50 and the Crybaby with mods: Red Fasel inductor, Fulltone pot, DPDT for true bypass. I can also remove the buffer if wanted. I just bought a Teese Picture wah.
Absolutely. And I must say that judging between the SS and the Black Screw models that I have, I would say that the SS model is a hair more lush. The thing is, I have both in my chain and now I am debating on selling one of them as it would be nice to have one set for a fast speed and one set for a slow speed. The sound of them on at the same time, set just right is downright amazing. Such hard choices we have in life. Don't we?
