DESCRIPTION:
I saw this modification gaining popularity around some guitar forums, so I decided to give it a shot and document the changes.

The modification gives the pedal a huge boost in volume and removes the fizz that is usually associated with a Boss DS-1, it also adds some bass frequencies that are usually lost in the stock version of the pedal.

There isn't a huge difference in removing one diode or two, but after removing the second one there is a bit less fizz and a bit more openness in the pedal, I don't know how well that will transfer to the video though.
