Did BillM's tonestack and Bias mods from here...

aswell as the Dave Stork gain mods and the out of step mod.

perfect solder work, exact resistor/cap values.


turn it back on and the Master fully cranked sounds like it's on 2

the preamps don't overdrive but when I push in the fatswitch it's this garbled distorted mess that fizzes out when strings are hit.

and the bass pot doesn't do anything

all I did was stick in an Orange drop. The amp sounds really nice with the Volume and Masters all cranked, but it's like a fraction of the volume it normally is.

I'm sorry to hear that! :( I hope you'll manage to sort it out somehow.

fixed (sort of)!

and modified



slightly earlier breakup on the preamp

asymmetrical clipping in the power amp

cool biassed

tonestack caps changed out for better valued Orange Drops



only thing is the bass pot has stopped working but it's on full and sounds awesome.
