Hmmm... I thought it sounded good on it's own and I've never heard of mods to these before, perhaps someone else can chime in...

Re: Fender deluxe reverb upgrades
I looked online and found some sites with mods to the amp...
In terms of speakers and tubes... I thought the stock speaker was fine and tubes can always be messed with... Is there something you're not liking about the amp?

Re: Fender deluxe reverb upgrades
those are common mods to most any amp. in general, changing preamp tubes will change the gain characteristics, powertubes will change the overall feel and some of the EQ, while a speaker changes the tone considerably, in a number of ways depending on what speaker you get.

If we're talking a reissue clip the brite cap, put some good tubes in it and drop the satock speaker and replace it with a G12H30 or a Eminince Can Rex and call it a day.

Re: Fender deluxe reverb upgrades
Now, how would the Eminence Can Rex react to high gain pedal tones? Also what brand of tubes would you recommend?

Re: Fender deluxe reverb upgrades
the rex is great with high gain. the drri itself isnt the best amp for high gain but the rex is a big improvment over the stock speaker.
if you want classic 6v6 tone look at nos or tung sol's. if you want something less 6v6 like but louder and tighter then the jj is a cool option. for preamp tubes there are lots of good options out there.

Thanks guys! The drri already sounds monster through an xotic ep and a lovepedal redhead. Im excited to hear how it sounds with these mods.

Deluxe reverb....i agree with jeremy...tungsols in the front end and jjs in the power section. But swapping tubes is not really a mod....
