Ok, so?
When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car!
Cutting out a man's tongue does not mean he’s a liar, but it does show that you fear the truth he might speak about you!

Re: Trey’s Deluxe Reverb mods
This is the fender amp discussion. It’s a rather famous deluxe reverb amp and mods. Some members here may find it interesting or useful.
Re: Trey’s Deluxe Reverb mods
The 400VDC coupling caps in the PI are a bad idea. Mesas fail all the time because of this. 630VDC will be better.
It's because the -bias voltage is cumulative with the positive plate voltage. The cap 'sees' both these voltages added together. So if we had a -50VDC bias voltage and a 250VDC plate voltage on the PI, those caps would be 'seeing' 300VDC. Then factor in, when the amp is unloaded, those voltages can be higher.
I also think trimming up the values there could be a good idea. Gets rid of flub and blocking distortion.

It's true i've lost my marbles and i cant remember where i put them
Re: Trey’s Deluxe Reverb mods
This is somewhat interesting. So where did this come from? Is this Trey's actual amp that is pictured?
Most people stall out when fixing a mistake that they've made. Why?
