DS-1 Roxx Tri-Gain Plus Mod
« on: August 23, 2010, 12:16:27 am »
Well I read about this one on Monte Allums Site http://www.monteallums.com/pedal_mods.html a while ago, picked up a $10.00 donor DS-1 today and ordered the kit tonight.  Anyone out there done this mod yet?  I am anxious to see what this does to the DS-1.
I had a stock MT-2 I hated and was ready to chuck it into the pond behind the house or give it away but found his site and did his MT-2 Sustainia Tri-Gain Mod 1st.  Now i use the pedal often as it did wonders for that pedal.  Not quite sure what all 3 settings do but they are all drastically different.   I mostly use this pedal on the setting I call the dark or death metal mode incredible chunk palm muting.  Put the switch the opposite way and it has a good tone also with all kinds of combination with the 4 eq knobs, not to crazy about the middle setting it gets really touchy with any movement of any knob and does not like the dist. level above 1/2.

Well i finally got around to modding the DS-1 and it sounds great.  Kinda the same thing it did for the MT-2 except a much different sound more classic sound i would say.  With the toggle switch you get 3 modes.  I'm happy with it I guess this make distortion pedal #10.  Some people put trophies on the shel I put pedals Im as junkie. 

He who dies with the most pedals wins.
