    Several musicians have asked
    “Hey Mike, why don’t you modify guitar effects pedals for bass players?”
    Well the truth is we have a few pedals that we have modified for bass players for a few years now.
    This is one of the best!
    Our mod changes involve replacing cheaper factory capacitors and resistors with high quality
    Panasonic
    capacitors and
    metal film
    resistors
    for
    less noise
    and
    better tone quality.
    Some of the values of these components have been changed to add warmth and fullness, and to remove the shrill highs. The low mids and mids in general are improved.
    I have experimented with different diodes for the
    clipping section,
    and it seems (to me) LEDs are best here. I don't play bass a lot, but too much clipping on the bass does not sound so great. It is neat to have the gain option available, but you also need to be able to turn the gain down enough to get a cleaner sound. Using LEDs in the clipping section yields slightly less distortion, gives a little bit of a push, and allows more of the
    clean tone
    to come through.
    And of course we replaced the check
    LED.
    This one is clear when the effect is switched off, and it is a very noticeable blue when the effect is switched on.
    Hi Mike! I just want to say "thank you" for your work. Now my new ODB-3 sounds way better than before and I even have recorded a demo for youtube:
