Okie dokie. So I swapped out the 220k blocking resistor on channel 2 for a 27k. Whoa, now channel 2 is subjectively louder than Ch 1. We're talking night and day here. Very happy. I took some pictures and will try to post them for others.

Crane: thanks for the advice on the channel volume difference. It wasn't apparent when I was going into the front end of a Bassman. Now I'm bypassing the preamp and only using the power amp. Major volume difference. I also notice a few of the pull pots don't work well. So I've got some work to do!
