Modifications.
Beyond repairs we also offer amp Re-voicings. Some common mass produced “workhorse” amps have a lot of potential to be better. We have verified mods for select models, and are always expanding our repertoire!
These mods use the existing stock circuit board and topology and do not cut or damage traces. We make changes to components throughout the signal path and power supply to completely change the amp’s performance, optimizing for tone and touch response. Its like getting a new boutique amp for the price of a pedal! You don’t need to ship your whole amp, just mail in the chassis.
If your amp has issues and needs service too, we’ll take care of that along with the mod via our standard service pricing: labor + parts. Power supply re-cap and re-bias is $150

Fender Hot Rod Deluxe/Deville
