My Low Noise Boss GE-7 Completed

[STRATDELUXER97]

I replaced the lower quality opamps in mine with higher performance and low noise TI TL072 BCP chips mounted on chip holders...I then installed some metal film resistors where I felt they'd help knock down some extra hiss...Caps were upgraded,but the last two low and low mid caps were increased to get more overall low and low mid adjustments from my eq..Some 1mfd electrolytic can caps were also upgraded to much preffered high quality poly caps..It's now very quiet,in fact I'm running the eq volume at 1 or 2 notches above center...I've tryed the eq in both the effects loop and the amp input.So far I prefer it in the loop....The pedal is very quiet and you can't tell whether the pedal is even on unless you switch it in and out of the circuit and hearing the tonal changes...I'm happy with the outcome! :dance:

Here's some GE7 porn for you all...

LOL....I only have enough extra components to do one pedal right now,but sure,you can send your's if you like...If I see any added interest,I'll order all the components needed to do for others...

How much would this kind of mod cost a forum brotha?

John's prices are very reasonable, if you have a GE-7 you want modded, just ask him. Even with the added cost of international shipping, I'm sure it would be worth it. He's not going to give away all his secrets for free.

Thanks Ryan....I'm all about helping each and everyone as much as possible,but I also can't be expected to give away "everything" after it takes me several hours of trial and error...My prices are way too cheap,so why not take advantage of it? There are a small handful of folks here on the forums that have tryed to mod their own pedals and then I end up charging them to fix them anyway..Save yourself this hassle! :wink:
