Blues Deluxe Reissue gain mods

Post by Ross Redwin »

Hi guys. Just finished modding my Blues Deluxe Reissue using the Duncan Amps gain mod for the original Blues Deluxe as a starting point. The cct are a bit different, but with some adjustments and working out the various changes needed to install this and get it operational. I did take the opportunity to do a couple of reliability mods and also carry out a global master volume mod. But the real point was to get a drive channel that was really a drive channel. IT WORKED!!!!!!! Thank you to Duncan Amps for their willingness to share their knowledge. I will post the details when I have had a chance to write the job up in detail, including update cct diagrams and board layouts, plus watch-outs for anyone else wanting to carry this mod out.

Hi Ross,

Glad it was some use to you, however I cannot claim any credit for it! The mod was developed by Andy Marshman, he's the guru behind the change :D
