This guidebook shows owners and dreamers the basics of getting the best sound possible out of their Fender amp with simple and advanced modifications. These include essential and fundamental tips like selecting tubes, capacitors, pots, and other electronic equipment, as well as biasing and setting up your amp. These include making one channel into an overdrive channel, making both channels reverb (since most two-channel Fenders have one reverb and one normal channel), modifying tone controls, making one channel either a Marshall or Vox channel (changing preamp and tone arrangement-not a permanent, destructive mod), building splitter boxes to run two amps simultaneously, creating splitter speaker setups within one amp, building the perfect gig amp, and more.
