Hey Drgonzo, Thanks for the Demo. Hey what's the difference between this demo and the other one with the bypass switch? is it only the true bypass? Thanks man! I like this sound. Also can you do a a demo with the stock and this mod?

[drgonzoguitar]

@ralphe01 I don't have either pedal anymore. I made the BD2 true bypass when the flip-flop (buffered switch) died. Tonally speaking, there is no difference between stock or true-bypass.

[drgonzoguitar]

@ralphe01 The only difference is the bypass method.

very harsh on the high end, i don't know if it's the quality or not.

[drgonzoguitar]

It is sort of the nature of the blues driver to have some treble bite. Using a Tele doesn't help matters much either!

@BrianGuitarShred: MHP Galaxie Mod for the BD-2 fixes all of the issues that the BD-2 has.

Unlike all these other "Popular" mods.

@Detman101 Never heard of MHP Galaxie Mod. Again, the guitar is a tele. It is supposed to be bright in bridge pickup.
