The YM2413 board that I use in my Sega Master System 1 was hand made by Tim Worthington aka Viletim, and although it works pretty well, I have always found that it sounds a little strange when set to certain parameters, especially the 'Guitar' preset instrument.
It turns out that the chip supplied on my board was a clone (unbeknown to Tim) - luckily, Tim was kind enough to procure a batch of real YM2413 chips. Thanks go out to Jacko for ordering my replacement, real YM2413, the difference is truly remarkable.
I installed the real YM2413 chip in the SMS1 today, and not only does it offer a cleaner, smoother sound, all of the instrument presets work great!
