    Okay, I listed it:

    Happy to stop the auction for anyone here interested.

    Okay guys, I’ve thought long and hard on this one. I’ve decided to just get a newer Small Stone (which I have already found and is on the way) to mod the crap out of. I’m going to be selling this Vintage Small Stone and hopefully it will go to someone who can appreciate it.

    I’m thinking of listing it on ebay later today, but if you have any other ideas, let me know.

    Interesting conversation, guys. And really what I wanted to hear. I haven’t had time to do anything to this pedal yet, so I’m still weighing. The only reason that I would have for selling this SS for more than I paid would be to buy parts to do more mods to other pedals.

    Liberty,
    Can you let me know how to add the grounded input or point me in the right direction? After some research, I’m aware that this needs to be done, but not sure how to do it. I agree… it’s not worth being sentimental over something that doesn’t sound very good. I think that making it sound as best as you can is the priority.

    If you dont know how to do this let me know.

    I modded my 79/80 SS too, most,but not all, non-true bypass is awfull so I’m not sentimental about it.

    I’m happy to work with what I’ve got and I do think that the vintage/retro case is cool.

    I just thought I’d ask before drilling into an original model T….wasn’t sure if was a total sacrilege. As far as I’m concerned, these mods will raise the value of the pedal– at least for me.

    Thank you. I’ll try and redo things tonight… hopefully this will solve everything. Thanks!

    Thanks man. I forgot to enable the email notification over at DIYStomboxes and didn’t think that anyone had responded.

    As for the LED then, I should just look for a resistor that goes nowhere?

    In the meantime, I already rigged up the LED with a resistor. Is there any harm in just connecting that to the jack as you would for a normal true bypass wiring job?
