I think I used the standard vintage Fender value of 47pf, but you can experiment.
I also put a Metro fx loop in mine, it was a doddle to fit.
@p90fool thanks for that, I understand that the loop was changed for later versions so I’ll prob get that done. The cap sounds worth doing too!
Adjusting downwards to 33k (Marshall value) does trim some of this "fullness" out of the sound. More experimenting needed but so far I think 35k sounds great.
I don’t understand buying new guitars an immediately changing pickups either. Very popular on TGP it seems.
Im think of giving the Brown Iris mod a go from these guys, they appear to be the approved dealer for Jet City mods
It's also a bit drab sounding with the gain lowered, but that's fixed by a 20p capacitor in ten minutes.
It is after all, a very cheap, good-sounding amp - you could easily spend and extra grand to get something similar with every feature you want.
Guitars are even more obvious candidates for me, what if you like everything about a guitar except the pickups?
nice little project to get stuck into
Modulus _ Amps was correct when he said this would add bass, it did. Not dramatically but it's there.
But it's like the amp itself is not as "full", or as "fat" as it was at 47k, if that makes any sense, I'm rubbish at describing sound. May be a mids thing?
But I like the difference. It's also not dramatic but then this is what I can get away with at home volumewise, I'm not talking about gig volume.
How much was the shipping and import duty?
im waiting for a amp tech to fit it all although he’s currently on holiday. I’m rubbish with electrics so didn’t want to touch it myself
