Mod Kit for almost any tube guitar Amp
(Amp is not included.)
So many amps, so little time! I am constantly getting inquiries asking if I have a mod kit for abc or xyz amp. In the processing of developing more and more amp-specific mods, I have now come up with a circuit that will work for nearly any guitar amp that has a normal tube preamp design.
The BitMo V-Switch kit contains parts and instructions and makes your amp much more versatile by adding 3-way switching between different voicings.
These mods should work with any amp that uses a tube preamp with a standard 500k-1M ohm Volume or Gain control. It works particularly well with simple low wattage amps, with or without a Tone control or full Tone Stack (Fender Champ, etc.)
You won't lose anything. The middle position of the switch is the stock configuration and voicing of the amp.
Switch position 1 lowers the gain and increases the headroom and provides a “Top Boost Jangle” voicing perfect with your Rickenbacker 12 string for Byrds and Beatles. With a tighter bass and enhanced mid-treble response, it also works wonders for removing the mud from humbucker pickups. If you are a Vox fan, you will love this voicing!
Switch position 3 raises the gain and boost and shifts the mid frequencies down for anoverdrive that goes from fat to crunchy to the chocolaty sound of a singing “Tube Screamer”.
All voicings are very touch sensitive, going from warm or sparkly clean to balzout overdrive with lots of interesting shades in between, with various flavors of midrange.
Assumptions, warnings, etc:
· While these modifications are easy to do, you will void your warrantee.
· Tools needed: screwdriver, knife, soldering iron, rosin core solder, wire stripper, needle nose pliers, drill and bits.
· I consider these mods to be easy to moderate.
· Skills needed: be able to solder and drill a hole in the metal chassis.
· I cannot give you much amp-specific support, but I doubt you will need any – the instructions are very clear.
