Ok, so this is a crack open and recap video ... I think I gigged this amp 2006-2008... a friend had some questions ... about setting a bass amp up for guitar... so lets look at what I did years ago
Another great mod to do to this amp is add unused half of V1 into the circuit for more gain. I have two of these amplifiers and I’ve done just that to one and the other. I’ve added another 12 AX7 with the Trainwreck Express preamp -now that’s an amp!
Thanks for the cool tips Pat. I have one of these and it's my favorite amp. I've been using a J. Rockett Archer to get a little more midrange out of it in the past but will try this mod.
I've been looking at your videos concerning Traynor amps and the various mods/fixes you suggest. Have you done any work on a YRM 1SC model? I own one and was wondering if there are any mod recommendations for improving the tone. It already sounds pretty good. Thanks
When you say you bypass the slope resistor, are you just adding another in parallel with the original, or is the original out of the circuit altogether?
