Has anyone done any mods to one of these? I know Bill Machrone used to do them and offer a kit as well but not sure if he's around anymore. Fromel Electronics offers a kit which seems to get good reviews. I really like the amp which I bought around 2005 but hey, if I can get more out of it, what the heck. Mostly play my archtops with humbuckers through it. It has a foot/fat switch. https://fromelelectronics.com/products/bjr-mods

Did a little more research and sounds like Bill passed a few years ago. RIP. Sounds like his son was still selling components for a while.

it will benefit greatly from a Reverb Pan upgrade. You can get from Mojotone. I think I might have an extra one as well.
