I love my Roland JC40, but I have to admit it, I do miss having a tube amp, especially as my TV Jones pickups sounds so f***ing good through them.
I presently have a HRD III in a shop on consignment and the shop haven't managed to sell it for me yet. I'm just wondering that, for the return I'm going to get for it, why not just take it back from the shop and mod it with one of those Fromel kits or something?
I think I can justify it, as having both a solid state and a tube amp is very useful, and because of the drop in value by selling it.
Is the Fromel mod the best one for a HRD III, or can anyone suggest another? @ICBM?

I find that the volume doesn't taper smoothly (it just leaps up at 2), the bass end sounds really muddy and flubby, the gain stack seems to be pretty poor, as the gain/more gain channels aren't very good, the reverb could be better past 3 on the dial.
Overall I think it's a good amp but it could be really great. I want its tone to be the best it can be.
Thanks everyone, some great advice, ideas, do keep them coming.
