Ampeg tone stack modification
#18
Yes. I was actually going to offer a few different options for the capacitor values. some of the earlier ampeg amplifiers even used a .002/.02 combo for the bass, and a 500pf/.002 combo for treble.

So I thought I would offer that as an option, and I do like your suggestion of the 220pf/.0022uf combo too.

My thought is that I will use the conformal coating and then use some sort of color system to tell the difference between the different models.

for amps like the g12 or b25, there are separate modules for each channel. so you can replace them each with a different module, and get more tone shaping options from the amp.
kinda cool really.

I bet you'd make a ton of SVT players really happy if their tech's installed these and they didn't know, but they gave it a listen.

Some people might have vintage mojo when it comes to SVTs, but I imagine even an SVT would see an improvement if it had one of the old boards and this was replaced. You made it easy, too!

Every Ampeg with an EQ board should have one of these (or the like)!
If a person orders more than one - it's really interesting to mess with the treble values. I have mine permanently at 220pf/2.2n for a sweeter high end response, and it changes where the mid scoop falls. One could swap back and forth EASILY with two populated boards like this. Just 7 solder points to do/undo so long as your particular ampeg doesn't have low quality traces.

Here is a picture of the module next to a module I pulled out of my GV-22.

The module I pulled from the GV-22 is labeled 1346850 CR-01. But it is identical to the PEC#6470000.
