When Mods Go Bad – How Not to Mod a Fender Amp!

This clip was made by Adam Grimm of Satellite Amps. There are just no words to describe the lunacy of the thought process of the tech that did the mods to this Fender Deville amplifier. Any of you amp techs or homebrew tweakers are going get a real kick out of this. Please brace yourself for-

“When Mods Go Bad” – How Not to Mod a Fender Amp.

Please be aware there is a bit of potty mouth during the clip. I’m positive it could not have been avoided. Talk about it in the forums if you dare!

Testimonials:
David Nicholas - The 20watt amp is sounding fantastic! Delivered the goods at the gig and I'm finding cool tones all over the place with it. Love the cab w Emenince Tonkerlites too- perfect for my sounds! Makes the 12 string sound like a grand piano!
Peter Lacis - I had an audition for something recently that was all about Led Zeppelin I -- my custom Pennalizer BLEW THE MINDS of the guys I was playing with. They couldn't believe the sounds coming out of that amp. That album was never in my mind when I came up with the idea....so that's yet another testament to the amazing work that you do.
Scott Goldberg - I am very satisfied with the set-up, and the fast turn around.  With the "lower" action it feels easier to play.  I will definitely spread the word.
