| I am not familiar with this particular mod from this particular seller or company, but the socket and chip swapping is similar to some of the mods Keeley does on those same pedals. The price is pretty decent though for a modded pedal, but I would see if the seller could provide any sound clips, because different colored LEDs, sockets, chips and other changes do not matter if it does not sound good. |

| Thanks for the replys. I hadn't heard of this 'chip swapping' before, as far as the ability to swap out the chips by the addition of a socket type setup. I've been to the different sites (keeley, indyguitarist, etc.) but hadn't seen this. Any direct links to some of the more reputable ones utilizing this in their mods? |

Check this out: http://www.robertkeeley.com/product.php?id=13
That has info on the mods and chip swapping. I have not personally tried this specific mod from Keeley, but I do have experience with their MT-2 mod, and should be getting a modded DS-1 back from them in the mail tomorrow. Keeley won me over though because it is probably the first time where a pedal did everything that the literature stated it would do, and was not left for some loose interpretation or "sounds sort of like this, but not exactly". However, there are a number of top notch modders out there, so if you are interested in modded pedals, take your time in making a decision and do as much research as possible. |
