So this is perhaps that amp mod: Apparently this is what was done to this SV20 at least: "added choke, modified the circuit for a less aggressive tone and upgraded all the signal coupling caps."If only I knew how he modded that amp
I can't interpret the circuit changes unfortunately.
EDIT: This is what he does to the ST20 that works on SV20. Tho he doesn't describe any circuit changes. I'm guessing its not much but I can't find it.
- Replace all signal caps with Vishay MKT1813's
- Install a 5H choke instead of the 150R dropper, a Deluxe Reverb choke is perfect.
- I bypass the original lossy (it really sucks) FX loop and install a Zero-Loss FX board, there's a perfectly sized cutout on the main board that allows the FX loop board to be placed.
