anyway the mods list:
- Master Volume
- half power pentode/triode or tetrode/triode switch (maybe)
- Mid boost
- All tube gain boost - I am adding a 12ax7 in that empty spot on the chassis, and it will be used to inject a massive amount of gain. Might make it footswitchable so it'll be sorta like having a 2-channel amp.
- Slope resistor selector (Traynor/Soldano 47k, Fender 56k/Marshall 33k)
- complete tone stack overhaul - aside from the slope resistor i'm also changing values for the treble bypass cap and the mids/bass caps too. When i'm done, the tone stack will produce a signal that's sorta halfway between a Bassman and a Plexi. Very close to the Soldano tone stack but a bit different.
- NFB resistor selector (none, Marshall 10k, 27k, Fender 56k, Traynor 100k)
- Depth mod
- Adjustable bias
- Screen grid resistor selector (1.5k 5W/470 3W - allows me to use EL34 types and 6L6 types respectively)
also:
- new power tube sockets
- new filter caps
- clean all the pots
- replace some of the old ass carbon comp resistors with new ones
- replace some of the old ass coupling caps and drain caps too.
