Fromel Supreme Mod Kit for Fender Blues Deville Made in USA amp

Description: Unleash the tone of your Blues Deville Reissue with the Supreme Mod Kit from Fromel Electronics! This kit works for the USA Made Blues Deville. If you have an Reissue Blues Deville see my listing for that item. The Blues Deville in its short life has received a lot of acclaim, it sounds good and is pretty reliable, other than a couple common problems. After these mods your amp will sound fantastic and be more reliable. The classic Fender tone is released through these changes. The flabby bottom darkness is gone, what you get is full warm classic tone with nice top end sparkle. Complete kit with detailed instruction book with photo's includes all the following mods. This Mod kit is for the original Made in USA version. Please Note: The Supreme Mod kit includes both the "Complete Mod Kit" and "Recap Kit" that we offer and is the ultimate tonal upgrade for your own amplifier! Included in the kit is all the components necessary to to get your amp in top shape and the detailed instructions to make the changes easy. If you have a basic understanding of electronics and soldering skills you can do these mods in a couple of hours. Included in this kit are the following upgrades: Tone Stack - Get rid of that farty bottom, honky mids, and lack of clarity. High Quality WIMA Caps with corrected values for the Bass and Mid Cap and corrected value for the slope resistor. What about the Treble cap? replace the cheap ceramic cap with a high quality MLCC cap. The result is an amp that sounds huge and warm with nice top end sparkle, not dark and burried in the mix. Twin Mod - Fix the mids on the amp and get rid of that flabby bottom. This mod enables you to take all the mids out of the tone allowing more flexibility and versatility. This is accomplished with just a short jumper wire but the result is far better control of your tone. Brightness - Like to play at low volumes but find the amp too dark? The brightness mod adds sparkle to your tone at low volumes. As you turn your amp up the brightness mod looses its effect so the amp never sounds brittle at high volumes. Power Resistors- Many problems with the Blues, especially the older ones are from the power resistors that control switching, effects loop and reverb. Two new power resistors installed properly will avoid many problems down the road. Plate Load Resistors - Replace all the plate load resistors with 1% metal film resistors for improved performance and low noise. This amp can develop a loud crackle/static that is caused by the plate load resistors. Reverb Mod - Why does the reverb in this amp become a complete wash after turning it up past 3 especially at low volumes? This mod makes the reverb more controllable, fuller, and more natural. This is an easy mod that is nothing more than clipping one wire and replacing one cap but the result is amazing. Switchcraft Input Jacks- Your input jacks are soldered directly to the circuit board, apply some tension when the amp is plugged in and you could cause major damage to the circuit board in the amp. This mod gets rid of the wimpy plastic input jacks and replaces them with high quality metal Switchcraft jacks that are panel mounted and NOT directly soldered to the circuit board. Included is a shoulder washer and isolation washer so the input jacks do not ground directly to the chassis and prevents ground loops. Proper Lead Dress - Take a look inside a boutique tube amp and you will see all the wires carefully twisted and placed for greatest reduction in oscillation and noise. The Blues Deville has all the internal wires zip tied together. I give clear instructions on dressing the leads inside the amp for optimal performance, this results in lower noise and less chance for oscillation. Electrolytic Cap Upgrade - Replaces all of the power filter and cathode bypass caps with high quality F&T and Nichicon caps. Reviews: *Just wanted to let you know that today I installed the Hot Rod Dlx "ultimate mod" kit I purchased from you on 19th Feb in my Hot Rod Dlx. The result has been, in a word, SENSATIONAL. The difference is like night and day. Installing these mods has taken a pretty decent mid price combo and raised it to the level of boutique quality tone. *Your instructions were clear and concise, and the results spectacular.
