Here are some of my mods, some are old recordings and I am still learning better ways to make better recordings, so hopefully they don't sound too bad, haha! |

All clips except RD-50 Weber Hemp cone, Alnico magnet (Hojave MA100 mic) were recorded using a Weber MASS speaker load and Palmer PDI-09 DI for direct recording. |

I listened to the two HD130 mod demos. They sure sound damn good to me. Nice work. I think that I'd need a lot of personal/physical modification as well, to make sounds anywhere near that good. Thanks for posting. |

Where is the reverb mod details? I should look into that. Is there less hum? |

Reverb details for the RD-50? I do this for a living, I am partially disabled and can only do certain things these days, so I am limited to what I can do. Unfortunately I have to compete with so many other great amp techs with more financial backing, and support, I am a little one guy shop. I recommend a simple mod for the reverb for warmer, longer delay, get the MOD reverb tank 8BB3D1B, drops right in. |
