My feedback on the full removal of the input buffer always comments about how much more improved the bypass signal is, yet it’s now claimed by some that it’s is in fact worse.
I’ve seen these ‘true bypass’ mods with the input buffer left in place. They are usually done by overseas modders and have been sent to me for improvement. I remove the input buffer and that fixes the problem.
Removing the input buffer is the largest labour part of my true bypass mod. I could take the short cut and leave the input buffer intact, but I’d have to reduce the price of the mod by at least $35 if this was the way I did the mod.
Any wah true bypass mod that left the input buffer intact and was priced at anything like my price is just overcharging. Plain and simple.
Always compare apples with apples.
