That has to be one of nicest guitars os that style I've ever seen.
Great clean tones, are you using any of the amps boosts?
I'm looking forward to the mods as well. Nik should offer a bag of parts, I think they'd sell.

I probably know just enough to get myself into trouble but you have to start somewhere. I've decided to take the plunge and try tweeking my amp myself. I keep reading posts that give componets but never the exact componets, as in 330pf snubber caps, ok but what voltage? Or, 220K resistor but not what wattage. Little by little over several days I've learned the 330pf caps are 500V and the 220K resistors are 1/2 watt. Thank you to the guys who shared that, I sure as heck would have never figgured it out any other way.
The point of my thread, if anyone would like to chime in to help the beginners here please share the values (all of them too) of the componets you have been tweeking the amp with. Part numbers would be a God send here as well.
I finally was able to find the parts I needed on Mouser (after several attemps).
Mouser #: 581-5KQ331JOCAM Mfr. #: Desc.: Ceramic Disc Capacitors 500volt 330pF 5% SL
Mouser #: 660-CF1/2CT52R224J Mfr. #: CF1/2CT52R224J Desc.: 1/2Watt Axial Leaded Carbon Film Resistors 220K ohm 5% __________________

This from a Dumble newby, H = hot, R = rubber, M = monkey. Where this comes from, no clue. It has to do with seperate internal eq for the lead channel. If my information is correct. I think it is.

I own several Blackface amps, a Deluxe, Deluxe Reverb and Super Reverb as well a Tweed or two. The Overtone has much more mids than any of them. It also has better bass. The overdrive still reminds me of an old Marshal more than a cranked Fender.
