Yeah, sacrilige 
As if anyone could hear the difference, it's a buffered pedal for crying out loud  |

I was hoping you'd do that to the TS5.
IIRC, on the DSD-2, the bypass signal goes through a pre-emphasis filter & then a de-emphasis filter - it wasn't just a couple of buffering transistors. So, I could see someone getting all fired up about wanting true bypass on that, I suppose. |

| it'd be so much easier to make a true bypass bar to connect various pedals to it than mod each one... |

| Ugh... It doesn't even look good. I mean a 3PDT footswitch doesn't even slightly suit the style of a boss pedal... Yuk... |

I've seen this done to vintage Arion chorus pedals..(on the net)i agree it looks pretty naff... i've also seen a DS-1 converted to a tube distortion with a 12ax7 tube sticking out of it on youtube..... ... |

I hate to admit it, but those mangled pedals really don't offend me.
I actually think the one in Ollie's video is quite cool. I certainly wouldn't have it done to my MIJ models, but a brand new one. Why not? Might not be a usable pedal for a live situation, but would probably be a fun toy! |
