Serendipity JRC 4580D

[madmac]

I built the serendipity a couple of years ago and never really liked it compared to some of my other builds so it just sat there unboxed.  I thought I would try a few mods to see if I could get a better sound out of it.  Tried a JRC 4580D and Bat 41 and oh my this this sounds wonderful! Has a really nice softness about the tone that I really dig.

Also realised that having my Boss TU2 tuner fist in the chain was not such a great idea.  The buffer in that bad boy was really messing with the tone of my Sunking and Arisocrat - put the Tu2 after all the drives in my chain and every pedal sounds better!

Dang it now I have to box the serendipity up now sounds too good to leave it on my desk!

I like it a lot better with the JRC4558D in there than the AD712. The AD712 sounds too sterile to my ears. I'll have to check out the 4580.
