Anyone Ever?

Anyone ever MOD a VPJR to work for an active/passive guitar?

Hey dork! What do you mean

Pete, just so no one is appalled at an EB customer service reply ...
You can call me a dork too. (we're friends like that)

Dear EB Customer Service,

Not only am i completely appauled by the comments I feel as though you should be as well! DORK!?! SHEESH!!!! I Would expect a comment like this to come from someone working for F#nd3r but not from EBMM! LOL!!!!

Furthermore, i write this in reply to $Jodizzle$ let the DORKS unite! AAARRRGGHH!! HA!

I figured out my issue, I need to buy a different Pedal, unfortunatly nobody in the area carries the pedal i want!

 

[Jodizzle]

Hey dork #1,
glad you figured out your issue. I was trying to wrap my brain around it before lunch and it just wasn't happening!
You should order the pedal online ...

HEY DORK #2
Yeah that was my plan of action... they say great minds think alike!

Yeah, you really need another pedal for that to do it right.

Couple of options: you could try a 250k (for passive) vol pedal and put a 25k resistor along the outside lugs- that would make the resulting pedal 23k total (for active). But you'd affect the taper of the sweep.

Another option is to stick with the 25k (for active) pedal and put a buffer between your guitar and the VP. Then you'd always have the right impedance.

DORK #2---- THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! lol!

 

[Jodizzle]

I'm glad we here at EB could aid you in your decision making process!

 

[peterd79]

HA! I actually preferred the whole "Hey dork! What do you mean" approach... It added a very personal touch!

and your avitar reminds me of SPACEBALLS! I crack up laughing everytime i see it... lol! May the Schwartz Be with you! he he
