Posted by Dave Stewart on October 23rd, 2012 It’s great to get some good feedback on my mods, but it’s even better when the feedback is about a mod I worked really hard on to get something really special happening…
This is an email I got today.
Hi Dave,
Sorry I meant to get back to you a few weeks ago with my

Posted by Dave Stewart on June 4th, 2011 I recently sold a modded Marshall Blues breaker 2 pedal to a Trademe member in Shannon. Details on the mod can be found here, his feedback is here. He sent me an email that I was so pleased to get because this guy got exactly why I mod pedals.
Here is the email:
Hi Dave,

Posted by Dave Stewart on May 30th, 2011 “I can’t understand how you can justify this price. You buy the pedal for $70 second hand on trademe, then add your mod which would cost less than $20 and add $100 to the price tag. Thats a joke! It’s not surprising I see your auctions closing without bids on them guido_hatzis (54 ) 10:44

Danelectro Daddy-O and Marshall The Guv'nor
One of the most popular pedals that people like to play with in my collection is my old school black box Marshall ‘The Guv’nor’. Every time someone has a play on it they want to buy it.
It’s not for sale, never

Posted by Dave Stewart on December 1st, 2009 It’s coming up to the time of year where I have to rack my brain to buy Xmas presents for my nearest and dearest. I have got a lot of help this year from a few musical friends and as a way of repaying them for that help I have had some Gift Vouchers made

Posted by Dave Stewart on November 24th, 2009 1/. What is True Bypass?
The term “True-bypass” refers to a method of wiring a pedal’s stomp switch such that when the pedal is in bypass mode, your clean signal goes in one jack and out the other. The signal does not pass through any active circuitry that can corrupt your original tone. Many pedals

For all those vintage nuts out there here is my (incomplete) list of my vintage effects pedals. I’ve only included the most interesting for now (e.g haven’t included my rare Made In Taiwan Boss Pedals, US made DOD pedals, other Ibanez models

Posted by Dave Stewart on June 4th, 2009 Sure, as long as you ask the question before you bid and win one of my auctions I’m always prepared to do a layby deal.
The way it works is you have to do a Buy Now if it is an option or

Posted by Dave Stewart on June 2nd, 2009 Short answer, no. But I do mod the Belcat Delay which is surface mount, and have done for ages. I also do the Dexter Mods ‘Wild Turkey’ Klon Klone mod to the EHX Soul Food pedal which is surface mount. The problem with

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

Posted by Dave Stewart on May 4th, 2009 I carry a personal stock of parts that I use for repairs and mods. I buy these in bulk from places like Ebay, Small Bear and Effects Connection in the USA. I usually have to spend between $NZ100 and $NZ300 to make this worthwhile because shipping kills this kind of thing.
As a result I

Good question. You have a choice these days, your job is simply to make the right choice. Besides my feedback which tells you I run a professional modding service and have done for a number of years, you need to consider what

Posted by Dave Stewart on February 27th, 2009 Sure. I offer the same warranty to you that I get with the pedal. On used pedals this means that the pedal will be as described in the auction and will work as stated.
My warranty does not guarantee that a modded pedal will work with every configuration but that it will work with a

Posted by Dave Stewart on December 19th, 2008 Velcro is popular, but messes up the bottom of the pedal, usually taking off some of the label when removing it. Try fitting the backing plate of your pedal on upside down so that the Velcro sticks to the INSIDE of the plate,

Posted by Dave Stewart on July 18th, 2008
Posted by Dave Stewart on July 16th, 2008 No. There is a difference between learning and teaching. I’m a good learner. I don’t have the time to set up kit instructions and I do not have enough spare time to devote any time to answering technical questions from DIY installations gone

Posted by Dave Stewart on July 15th, 2008 Yes, of course. I live in Coastlands in Whakatane and work on race courses around the Waikato / Bay of Plenty as a photofinish technician. I am happy to arrange to meet you at any of these venues.
Posted by Dave Stewart on July 15th, 2008 The only mods I am doing are listed in auctions on Trademe, however I am always playing with pedals and often come up with new mods.
You are welcome to ask a question about another mod but if my answer is a link
