Hi guys Im new here. One easy mod is changing the 10k res on v1b to a 4.7k   also you can add a cap over it for a really good hot rod tone. put a .68 over the 10k first see how you like it.

This is a great mod if you want more gain. Also try an NOS RFT preamp tube in V1. A little noisy but killer sounding...
