DOD - FX69B Grunge

tunghaichuan · Post by **tunghaichuan** » 27 Oct 2008, 16:59

I have a DOD FX69B Grunge pedal. I bought it used. I took the back off to see if any mods had been done to it and found that two wires had been clipped off of the white terminal block at the bottom of the PCB. The wires are brown and white. I was wondering where these wires were connected. Anybody have one they could open up and check? I'd greatly appreciate it.

TIA,

tung

How is it about a picture of the track side ?
This would be helpful to trace where the wires should connect....

The wires have been cut away in the factory.
When you look at the track side you can see that they connect nowhere.
The reason is that you can buy such cables fully assembled and cutting away the unused wires maybe cheaper than buying custom assembled cables.

Thanks for the reply. The pedal works and sounds okay, so based on what you've said I'm not going to worry about it.

Update: I checked another DOD pedal I have with similar construction and sure enough, the brown and yellow wires were clipped off. Thanks again.

Hey,

I asked DOD for the schem for my FX69B. Here it is, factory schem and BOM. There are some really good mod suggestions in the Pimp My Cheap Pedal forum, and in the second Wampler book. The original pedal isn't very good, very high pitched, fizzy, noisy and has a bad bass roll off. You can turn it into a KILLER fuzz pedal though.
