I've got some samples, if there haven't been any yet. Or, I can post them anyway.

I got one of these and they're sweet.

So far:

1 - I've soldered a bridge over the wetness limiting resistor.
2 - installed a 470k pot over the delay time.
2 - (like rjl suggested) I've soldered in a "safety" switch replacing the feedback limiting resistor. This switch goes between a straight wire bridge and a wire with a series of resistors (8.9kohm*) - this flips the feedback knob (set at max) to either true maximum or a value just before true feedback starts.

CAN you tell me or show me (total novice) how to fit the saftey switch? a photo would be very good. have done the first two mods but would like the option to calm it down

What do you mean? Are you looking for somewhere to put the switch? I used the space in the battery bay for the mod components [I use adapters].

no, i ment where on the circuit board do the switch and resisters go. i understand that i am trying to replace the feedback controlling resister that i removed but am not sure what  to solder the wires to on the board. this is my first mod and it has all gone well so far but am now a bit lost.

sooo
bypassed the mix and repeat limiters,
but then by the time i got the delay time pot on
it no longer does any echo at all,
will it still have the guitar sound go through the pedal even if the chipped was fried by the solderin iron heat?
or is it still savable?

hey guys i have done all the mods successfully, but i am having a few problems rehouse-ing especially with the foot switch. for some reason i have to press the foot switch twice to turn the pedal on and twice to turn it off yet when i check it with the multimetre it opens and closes with one push and  the new led i added (the old one died on stage) turns on and off with one press....:S


cheers in advance

:D
