Boss Turbo Overdrive OD-2 Mods: mmmh, good

[nooneknows]

Hi,
a friend of mine asked me to squeeze a bit his OD-2, because he thought his stock pedal sounded a bit thin and with a low volume level.
I took a look at the posts over here and I came out with this mods (referring to boss original schematics, between the brackets the original value):

C1      0.047     (0.022)
C23     0.047     (0.018)
C31     0.047     (0.018)
C33     0.047     (0.018)
C35     0.22     (0.018)

added a Si diode in series to D11
added a Ge diode in series between D9 and D10

(I used the 0.047 caps because I have a bunch of them at home, coming from a pair of SD-1 and I am short of bigger values... maybe some 0.1 caps could work even better)

The mods sound really good compared to the original, my Jcm 800 seems to like it a lot, way way better than before (I have never liked this pedal so much until I made the mod), a bit louder, a bigger body even with my tele.

My 2 cents.

bye,
Marcello
