    Modding a Dual Rectifier Rev G

    Hey Guys, After checking out the amp thoroughly in its stock form, I decided to implement some circuit changes that I've been thinking about for a while. The stock amp was definitely too muddy and extreme in some ways, for my taste. I got rid of some bass early in the preamp and made some...

    Turning a JCM800 2204 into a better 2205

    Hey Guys, This amp left me a while ago but I just now got around to uploading the demo of it... It is an old 83 Marshall JCM800 2204 that was modded with a clean channel by Reußenzehn back in the day. The 2204 circuit was almost untouched except for two voicing switches. The guy bought the amp...

    1984 Bogner modded 70s Fender Amp

    Hey Guys, I recently found this very rare piece in Ulm, Germany. Reinhold modded the amp for a local guy in 1984. It started life as a 1977 Fender Dual Showman Reverb. It has a clean and overdrive channel, a tube fx loop, and a footswitchable "submaster" that further decreases the volume so...

    1983 Marshall JCM800 2204

    Hey Guys, I received this amp to add a tube FX loop and it ended up being a bit more work than that. For some reason, the power transformer had been replaced in the past and the work was done extremely poorly. The transformer also didn't seem to be that good, so we decided on swapping it for...

    1986 ESP M-1 Banana, Hockey Stick Headstock

    Hey Guys, Ever since I got my first Banana Headstock ESP a few years ago, I've been really into them. They seem to be quite hard to find at a good price these days, so when I came across this one on UK eBay, I had to get it. I was hoping that the neck was closer to my M-1 Reverse, which is...

    The End of my Jose Arredondo (Joe Holmes) Journey?

    Hey Guys, I've been chasing different Jose Arredondo tones for years. Mick Mars, John Sykes, John Norum, and most of all, Joe Holmes. I've had the opportunity to look inside an original Jose modded late 70s JMP that belonged to Joe and was sold in the early 90s. That amp confirmed some of...

    Double SDE3000 - 80s Goodness

    Hey Guys, I finally fixed my 2nd SDE3000, which had a problem with the delay cutting in and out. After taking a look at it, I found that the delay output jack, which is a switch jack, doesn't properly forward the delay signal to the mixing circuit. Luckily I managed to pull out the jack and...

    Hey Guys, It's been a while... I've been working on three different 2 channel prototypes and this is the most recent one. I finally stumbled across the perfect Fender for this project. It is a 1974 Twin Reverb that was converted to a head in 2009 and had the OT changed to a TAD made in USA...

    '78 JMP 2203 Octane Prototype Rebuild

    Hey Guys, This '78 JMP was first rebuilt a few years ago when I was still developing the Hot Chili and it was basically a prototype for a customer at the time.

    Recreating another Jose Arredondo Marshall: Mick Mars '73 SL

    Hey Guys, After watching Pete Thorn's video on the original amp in 2021 I knew I had to try and recreate that amp at some point. The time has come... I was never really interested in the lower-gain Jose mods without the diodes until I learned that it was the mod used on Dr. Feelgood. It is...

    One-off JCM800 2203 Rebuild

    Hey Guys, Had this one sitting here for a while, after a local guy dropped it off when he was collecting his custom 2204 Rebuild. We talked about a lot of different circuits that I could put in the amp. When I released the Hot Chili videos, he asked if I could make it sound like one of them...
