So i bought an MXR 1970's block logo dyne comp. Its in pretty good condition but most interestingly is the fact that inside its the same circuit as the script logo pedals.... I tried to sell this on ebay and it just wasn't going anywhere so i decided to keep it.
The problem is that these pedals aren't true bypass (or buffered) so there is always a load on the signal even when seemingly bypassed. on top of that they are battery only and don't have an LED indication. I thought that as I'm keeping it i would rectify all of these things......
the question i, have i ruined a collectable item or was i right to do it?

Bodge? I like the led there, moreover the led surrounds fit nicely in that position put not at the top of the footswitch. The board inside extends down to cover the 3pdt edge so it couldn't have gone above the switch. Horses for courses though
D'oh!
well if you want an enhanced one you know where to ask!!
