Boss DF-2 Mods

The Boss DF-2 is a fantastic pedal, and it’s very unfortunate that it’s not made anymore. Even worse is that the originals often don’t have enough output to push volume over your clean signal.

My HUM Along pedal solves this - but maybe you enjoy your original pedal, with the Boss aesthetics and the feedbacker section. I offer a few cool mods that make this pedal more personal/useable.

— A mod that solves the volume problem for any era of the DF-2, while keeping all the sound and classic characteristics.

— A simple mod to remove the voltage limiting on the power input, so you can use the intended 9 volts instead of the 12 volts most came labelled as.

— Another classic sound is the “Swervedriver Mod,” which is essentially a broken capacitor connection on the original PCB that makes the Feedbacker sound like an insane siren. This happened in the pedal used by the guitarists in the epic band Swervedriver. This mod puts it on a switch to choose which mode you want the feedbacker to operate in.

— I can add a normal footswitch at the top left of the BOSS footswitch to lock the feedbacker function on when the distortion is engaged. It doesn’t impede the original hold feature either. Video below.
