Bypass reverb to increase overdrive?

Re: Bypass reverb to increase overdrive?

Similar reverb to Fender, but capacitively coupled ... just look up how to link the reverb send and return on a Fender amp and try it on yours. I'm going to try to get my neck straightened out.

Why do you not like the reverb on the YGM-3? I loved it when I played it...

Decay is too long. In general it's just "too much" in every way. I have read up on ways to mod the circuit, but I don't even like the basic character of the reverb. Plus, I prefer a dry (non-reverb) sound in almost all cases. The only exceptions being if I'm wanking on surf or cowboy movie sounds.

Fair enough... I find even with heavy fuzz distortion that a little spring reverb adds more harmonics and overall oomph .. maybe I'm crazy but that has been my experience but then again I like a very wet 3d sound.

Good luck with modding your YGM-3... those are killer amps , I love Traynor stuff and regret selling my YGL2 but the YGM-3 and YBA-1 are miles ahead of that amp
