Anybody Want some work repairing and modding a muff?

Post by Deltaphoenix »

Or know who to contact. It is a russian muff. The input and output have been switched, it is true bypass, and has boss style power. Supposedly the controls aren't controlling the right thing (vol controls sustain etc).
I also would like to do some mods. I want it to be more bass friendly (change caps?) maybe add a clean blend. I love being able to control mids. Any crazy ideas that are doable, run 'em by me.
Thanks

Tone bypass and clipping diode switches are quite common mods. You could also add a pre-gain stage. Clean blend is also good. You could also "gate mod" it by adding a pair of diodes in series before the last gain stage of the circuit.

I found out a clean blend requires another circuit board being put inside the enclosure. Would it fit inside this pedal? I know there is a lot of room inside the enclosure.
