The focus of the stock coupler will make the amp sour.. soar! I meant soar!
Well, I lifted one end of the 2n2. What a change! The level of bass I had dropped to a nicer level. I actually got to turn the bass knob up some. Everything just seemed more 'jangly', 'sparkly', if those are even accurate descriptions. It's interesting, building an amp as a new builder, with only mediocre sound clips to judge by. I prefered clips I found with the 2n2 in, but in person, I do not.
Thanks, Reeltarded, for the heads up!
That rules!! This literally kept my Liverpool unused for almost 4 years.
The amp speaks now where it used to lose so much of it's living efficiency to a range that you try to cut, but can't with controls.
I think a lot of people standing around your shop smoking weed and talking about your great amps makes you imagine ideas long after you are done. Whiney bitches with strats playing at 3% rotation on the volume control.
No offense to whiney bitches with the volume cracked..
Signatures have a 255 character limit that I could abuse, but I am not Cecil B. DeMille.

Lift one end of that 2n2 and see if the amp doesn't sing a good bit better. It tubbed out my Liverpool and stopped mid sing A LOT.
Wait. Can we back this train up a bit?
Are we talking about that ceramic cap across V2a-V2b orange drop coupler cap (C8)?
I haven't seen a paralleled cap there before, it's not in the Kelly layout or schematic, is it? Without that extra cap, you can't lift the interstage coupler which is the only .0022uF in the amp so what am I missing?

Haha, I haven't even tried my Strat with this yet. The Strat and I don't get along. The 335 has been sounding so good I haven't bothered with anything else yet!

Yes, that's the one. It was one of the Ingrid mods. Someone with more knowledge on this would have to comment on its original purpose. I played the amp right before I made the change, and then right after, and it was a considerable difference.

No,you have to lift the whole coupling cap.. single.. a pair. It lowers the volume of your amp at least 100%.
I think this is the Can-I-Jam-With-Your-Band? Mod.
