If you've soldered pickups, you'd be alright. Depending on which version you have (email me a pic of the inside if you want!), it's likely as easy as moving three wires on the main footswitch. Email for details! :)

And yeah, Scruff could do it if you don't feel comfortable, but it's a pretty easy mod. I can send picture instructions! :)


Sounds like it might be just within my capabilities then - I'll drop you a photo of the innards. If it narrows it down a bit more easily you built it for me in November/December 2011. Thanks for this!

I still love it! Just changed to a really high gain frying sort of sound, so much fun.

I kinda want an Arc Flash again... I miss the ridiculous spitty sounds on the higher gain mode when the gain is maxed and it has like no attack because it's so compressed. Also all the other sounds.
