Just did these mods on my sd-1 and it sound preatty amazing.
I wanted for a long time to nail the Clapton sounds on his blues albums
(From the cradle, Riding with the king...) of course an Fender tube amp is needed.
This is close to his Cornell amp. + standard strat (no mid boost needed)

D4 ------------Germ. And 1n4001 series
D5 ------------1n4001
D6 ------------Germ. And 1n4001 series

Low freq cut. Cap. in the first opamp stage = 0.22uF

Very interesting...

I am finishing installing a mid tone control in my Strat these days, but it is worth checking out.

As far as I know, From the cradle was record using his cherry 335, Cream-wise, at least that what he uses on that concert dvd (old songs apart).

You need a Gibson Les Paul and a Marshall Bluesbreaker amp turned up to 11.....no effects needed!
