Did you ask Ceriatone?   It would all depend on what you wanted them to do. Other than some different spec trannies I am not sure that I would want to mod a TW clone. Unless you know something that the rest of us don't..... Grin
What did you have in mind?

Mainly a PPIMV....

But I'm open to suggestions, too.  Grin


FYI:  I have ZERO building skilz.  I have an iron, and the last thing I used it for was cutting plastic!

Just wanting to see what my options are. 
Is an express heavy enough for Tool/R.A.T.M./A Perfect Circle/Pearl Jam/Primus....(NOT teh KRUSHING Br00()TALZ!!!!1!!)....or would another amp be more suited to this style of music? 

I know that RATM (Tom Morello) used a 2204...but I never felt "tone" was his strong suit. 

Can anyone point me to some clips that AREN'T some old guy noodling around? Shocked  I'm old too, but I try not to sound like it. Cool  Anything "modern" would be VERY helpful. Chair Dance


Was also academically wondering about having 2 master volumes.  One "pre" and one "post" Phase Inverter.  Is this possible?

And I can totally live without "Presence".




Academically:
Is there a 6V6 option?
Is there a KT## option?
Is there a 6L6 option?
DC powered heating filaments?

Other than Pearl Jam, I am not familiar with any of those bands. But I would still have to say that you are looking at the wrong amp.  A MV on a TW clone is kind of like installing a smog pump on a 1969 Camaro. I think you already identified the better amp for you. Either a 2203 or the 2204 would be fantastic. They are both available with a PPIMV. Just send Ceriatone an email, Nik will be able to help you much better than me.
Good Luck
