Alright guys. It's 2024. Let's update this with some actual pics.
This isn't the 'blanket mod' but I think it achieves the same thing just earlier on in the circuit.
HIGH END RESTORATION:
After the treble pot in the dirty channel there's a network to ground right after it comprising of a 22k and that .001 cap to ground. This is a low pass filter knocking off some high end. Lifting one side of the 22k removes this filter from the circuit and restores some much needed high end.
The 22k lives here just behind the reverb pot. You can see I only lift one end, this breaks the circuit but also means it's easily reversible.
MOD 2:
VOLUME MOD. This is the 220k resistor that sits across the input and output of the LEVEL pot. Removing it restores a normal/predictable taper of the pot.
And it lives here right by the 2 big blue filter caps. Again, I just lifted one end.
GAIN MOD:
This is changing the 150k to ground after the treble peaker off V1b, between v1b and v2a.
Schematic:
And it lives here sort of 'on' the tube. It's a bit difficult to see but in this pic it's the one I've switched out for a 220k beige one. Interestingly the stock one on mine had drifted to around 120k. Use the blue 3x 30uf filter caps as your compass and you'll easily find it.
OBLIGATORY WARNING: Don't touch random ****, especially around the big blue filter caps, or anything connected to the power supply. Luckily Mesa do usually install bleeder circuits that drain the residual current when the amps are unplugged, buf it that bleeder fails you're going to be in for a nasty surprise.
Of course don't touch anything when the amp is plugged in and running unless you know what you're doing, and learning how to discharge caps safely, and also how to use a multimeter to test for voltages would be prudent (people should learn this anyway, it's a handy skill).
This isn't my original work. Thanks to Monsta-Tone, and some other guys from Rig Talk. Each forum has their own set of mods, these are just the ones I've done so far.
