JCA22H, any reason not to?

Re: JCA22H, any reason not to?

I modded mine slightly to get what I wanted. Added a bypass cap to the second (or third?) gain stage to really thicken up the highs and add some gain. Still only run it on about 6, but it made a huge difference. I can still switch it out on the front panel.

I run my preamp on 6 too, as well as the master when I'm at a show.

I think maybe some of the things you got yours to do with mods, I get from running mine through a set of Cannabis Rex speakers...they went a long way toward thickening it up and taming any harshness it might have had. The touch response is awesome, and I can get a full range from clean(er) to crunchy with picking alone.

I run mine through a Governor and a Wizard, which I love. Depth mod was a big improvement, as was putting a 12AU7 in the PI.

Cool, Tony. I'd like to see what you do with it.

Just the usual suspects really slo mod, proper clean channel srv and depth mods.

The 50h will be a little more interesting that's going to become rectifierish
