I might pickup an MT-2 for cheap and wanted to do some mods. Which do you prefer?
the best mod I ever did to improve the sound of an MT2 was selling the pedal to someone else ;)
Did you make something with your MT-2?
I wanna try the Diezel Mod.
Here are the mods from the Wampler book

Got a laugh out of that one.
Removing C25 & C35, like it shows in this PDF are the first things I would do. It bypasses the gyrators boosting those " nasal mids"

In the pdf document linked R25 is circled. Why?
No clues about the changing? I seen somebody change it, from 470k at 350k.
I have no idea. I just posted the pages out of the wampler book. Never done any myself
There's a switch mod that cuts off the pre eq that I like. I can throw up some pics tomorrow.

Completed the Diezel Mod, included the C36 mod -> 100nF. ;)
The best heavy distortion I ever had!
With my Crate, before the mods, was not so good, rather ugly, harsh, thin... especially with my Stratocaster, especially with the stock bridge pickup. Now it has a JB Jr.
After the mod it sounds great, and more than great with my Ibanez SZ520FM stock.
I have to say, my stock MT-2 some years ago sounds fine in front of a kind of Marshall 100w mono-channel tube amp, t does not even look like a metal zone, or that one I knew. Now it sounds fine with my solid state amp, too. :D
And in front of a tube amp it will sound even better, after this mod? :o
