This is a very simple mod a good first project for anyone getting into pedal modding. It doesn't make the pedal sound different but it can give any pedal a custom look.

    Did you have to change the current limiting resistor on the LED, those blue ones can be overly bright sometimes?

      I just left the original one in there. Obviously you can change it if you want but I didn't bother with this one. The white LED seems a bit brighter than the stock LED but not drastically.
