RD-50 Mod clip

Here is the clip of the RD-50 I just modded. It has a EVM-L 12" speaker.http://www.monsterspacetoast.com/1965Che vyMalibuPage.html
This is our Bands website, and the Bass players Chevy Malibu.

This is a different RD-50 with the "Special" mod that I call. It sounds reminisent of Robben Fords tone.

Absolutely Outstanding
I sure wish I sounded that good

Thank you Andrew, I am still trying to learn some new tricks and always will. I have had the opertunity to play with some awesome players and have learned a lot from them. Just keep practicing and playing, and especially feeling your music. We were quite happy with the RD-Special-Mod. It can get a nice Dumble-like tone, but its still a Musicman with all its glory Hows your HD doing?
Thank you,
Ed

Its doing great, I think I fixed all the bugs and your modified Paul C mod is working well.
I did go back to the 12ax7 PI tube, ended up liking that better.

Thats awesome Andrew! Keep me posted on it from time to time, its great to hear that these amps are still going strong. Maybe someday I could build a tribute amp with some important Musicman features. I think a tube driver circuit with these mods and maybe a 12AX7 type overdrive. I have to say though that this HD-130 I have been working on for Rod is getting some great vintage Bassman/Plexi tones with the modded IC preamp. It can get that big jazzy open tone to Heart/Zepplin tones with my Two-Rock 12 65 speaker! I am thinking about a notch filter for a scooped modern tone option thats switchable on that channel. The reverb channel will retain the Musicman/HD vibe, very rich and bluesy but with a switchable Clapton gain mod and my midrange circuit that allows the stock midrange up to a boosted Santana-like mid, that is like the tone he got on "Europa". I was watching a video of Tom Johnston of the Doobie Brothers playing through his HD 130 212, back in 79'. What a tone he got with that Gibson Firebird. I'll try to post a clip of it soon or you can email me if you want.
thanks,
Ed
