      The tone from Seifert Electronics SD-1 mod is better than I’ve had from a couple of highly publicised and expensive) mods to TS-series units from the USA. I don’t think anyone goes into the same detail as Frank to emulate the TS-808. I play mainly hard rock with some early blues and this pedal gives me everything I want. It is nothing like the stock pedal. The first thing you notice is that there is now bass it never had before, but it is not muddy at all. The strings retain their transparency and with the drive backed off, you get a beautiful clear punch with just a touch of overdrive. Maxxed out, you get a great fat tone with stacks of sustain. It really does what they claim and I’ve shipped another unit down to have it modded. I just don’t want to run the risk of gigging without one. Good work, guys!

      1. The Seifert Electronics SD-1 mod is back....

        Hi there fellow twangers and shredders. I am very pleased to advise that after an absence of some 10-years, I am once again doing the SD-1/TS808 mod. It ground to a halt when I ran out of the critical op-amp chips. Last week I dug up a bunch of them so I can keep doing the mods for a while again. Here’s some more reviews, dating back to the first run. Nothing has changed – same components, same great tone. Send me an email for more info. Cheers … Frank

  1. Frank's mod kicks ass!!!

    He said it would sound great, because it is so much better than the stock pedal. Wow! he wasn’t kidding. What an understatement. My very ordinary yellow pedal has been totally changed so it is now a superb overdrive with smooth transparent response, heaps of sustain and rich harmonics. The price was unbelievably low for the best overdrive mod I’ve come across. I love it!!!

  2. My SD1 is awesome!!!

    Best mod ever! Nothing like the original pedal – it’s a tone monster, incredibly smooth right across the range. Top harmonics, sustain and generally "fat". Thanks Frank!!!!
