Title: Bluesbreaker — tone controls do (almost?) nothing
Post by: camsna on March 18, 2018, 10:18:03 AM
I feel insane typing this. Either because I should’ve noticed sooner or because my ears have failed me.

But the tone controls on my Bluesbreaker build seem to do almost nothing. Specifically, the bass, middle, and presence controls are so subtle that between 0 and full-on, I’m not sure I can hear any difference at all. And the times when I THINK I do, it’s very subtle. Like, “Okay. Maybe it’s doing something.” This can’t be right, can it?

Where should I start looking? Thanks so much.

Also — amp has two mods that depart from the print.
1) 1uf cathode cap (as opposed to 220uf — recommended by Nik)
2) PPIMV
