Friedman BEOD and an NS2 turned up this week. Bought a PT1250 power supply last night. Starting to put together a bit of a pedal collection again. Bit of ply should do well enough for a board this time around. Good enough for EJ..
Loving it so far

yep it is quite an easy mod. Just make sure it intonates and you get the locking nut to sit right. I have just modded a Vtrem to a floyd but I have not put in a locking nut. Instead I put a roller nut..so far it holds tune really well, but my OCD keeps screaming "put in the locking nut" :rofl:

Now out of the mail: tomsline black teeth. I bought it over the eno one because of the extra mode. Not a lot between the turbo and solo modes though. You easily live with just the two.

Anyway, this thing is awesome, would totally recommend. Classic mode maxed out into a clean channel is a nice filthy disto fuzz. Turbo mode into a crunchy channel with the volume maxed and gain at 8 gives a touch of boost, fatness and hair. Which is what I was after mainly.

The packaging for these pedals is sharp too. All around great buy.
