She is up and sounding decent. Voltages are good
Voiced the normal channel tonestack with .022/.022/ 390p and 56k
Stock on the Bright channel. Did the tremolo cap mod to slow it a bit.
Added a Bias pot and bright caps on pull pot switches.
Tapped treble pot on normal channel seems to work ok, bright channel tapped pot cuts volume when turned up past noon.
May replace or try Martin's tapped pot alternative.
So far, (not much time spent playing) different than other Fender's I have played, although subtle, there's a nice variety of tones.
Bit darker than other Fender circuits.

Hi Joe
Used a EV12 for testing.
Had to make a few tweaks, she really is sounding nice now
Plugged into a 2x10 closed back cab and she came to life.
Imho the trem is not needed but a nice addition to the amp.

Got it in a cab
Great sounding circuit, nice old school Fender tones.
