great topic by the way !!

ok ! i had a DOD "juice box" overdrive pedal , as you guys all know that i do pedal
mods etc etc , i made 3 changes inside this unit and BANG !! it's the best sounding
overdrive pedal i have ever heard !! yes , i know !! its a DOD fx 51 'JUICE BOX"

i have modded many tube screamer clones as well as all the usual suspects , and i
was blown away with the warmth , clarity , and the real tube like tone that came
out of this box . yes , again dod fx51"juice box "

so i took it to my pal at my local music store to have him try it out (big mistake!)
they too were blown away at the tone of this almost unknown pedal etc. after
it was all said and done , it found a new home this afternoon , one of the other
guys that works there opened his wallet and paid me on the spot , it was that
good , he was going to pick up an OCD today after work , so we tryed the two
out side by side , the juice box had a fuller, tighter sound and it also worked well
with many amps , even better than the OCD .

i have modded alot of good sounding units , but there is just something about this
juice box that just works better than alot of others , and to make matters worse
i cant find a schematic anywhere .......piss me off !!!!
