Features
Boss GE-7
The GE-7 has seven bands ranging from 100Hz to 6.4kHz, ideal for tweaking guitar sounds, with boost/cut of +/- 15dB per band. This lets you completely control your sound and eliminate unwanted feedback, particularly when connected after a distortion effect.
The Pro mod is designed to improve clarity and lower the noise issues that the stock GE-7's have. This is accomplished by upgrading the chips and tone capacitors. We replace the cheap stock tone capacitors with high quality film capacitors like we use in the rest of our effects. This improves the overall clarity of the pedal.
VOLTAGE : The stock GE-7 can not be run over 15V. We modify it so it will run
fine on 18V, which will give even more clarity and headroom to the pedal.
The stock GE-7 can add some noise if you move
the sliders away from center. Even bringing the two lowest sliders DOWN will add noise, try it!
Our mod replaces three chips with the King of Tone chip, which is a low noise
chip designed for tone controls so it's perfect in this application. These chips take about 40% more power (pedal goes from 16mA to 23mA), so a battery will not
last as long, better to use a power supply. A normal alkaline battery will still last over 15 hours, so you can use batteries if you want.
We also
change a bunch of cheap capacitors used for tone control to high grade metal
film caps. This lowers noise and improves tone. Thanks to the people on the
diystompboxes forum who posted info on modding this pedal. We used their ideas
and just tweaked it a bit to make it the best sound for the price. We can modify
the old or new GE-7 pedals or sell you a new one with our mod, plus optional LED change.
New for 2012, GEB-7 Bass version mods!
We can now offer the mods on the GEB-7 Bass version. Same price, same improved tone and lower noise.
