Has anybody tried modding their pedals?

I bought an online book that shows how to mod something like 60 pedals or so. So far, I modded my Vox Wah to true bypass and it made a big difference in my sound. All this time I was wodnering why my tone was sucked dry when playing live only to discover the circuit was the culprit. Just put in a 2PDT or 3PDT switch in and away you go. The mod took about 20 minutes to do and was well worth it.

I've been tempted into modding my Boss DS-1...There are a couple of mods floating around on the Web. But I'm a wuss.

:D

Those are indeed the books in PDF that I purchased. Very well documented and easy to understand for boneheads such as myself. I'm modding my Danelectro Daddy-O since all I'm using it for is a doorstop right now. I'll try recording some before & after clips to see just how well the mod works for this one.
