Tons, I even do Mods for this pedal. What do you want to know about it?

I was looking for an effect to use with my FSK that would give me a sound like I get from my my Mesa Subway Blues, I would call it a smooth crunch, not a lot of distortion but enough. Not real easy to explain. The effect I have tried which is a delta labs is like nothing or too much if you know what I mean.

Check out my demo video on the mod I do on the pedal. It goes from a clean boost to a smooth overdriven tube type sound.

Thanks for the vids, John! I modded one to the "Keeley" specs, and another with the Monte Allums mods using the dual stacked chips. I think your mods sound cleaner, and are more versitle than the "Keeley".

That is just what I am looking for. Interesting I have the same Strat I think with Lace pickups.
Thanks

My Mod incorporates different elements of several Mods I have checked out. The Keeley the Monte Allums and the Wampler. My own spin on them, what sounds good to my ears. If you want to get a BD-2 with my Mod I always have one or more around to sell.
