This mod is quite simple: You just need to remove the tone capacitor labled C13 (at least for the AC30 CC). Therefore, all modifications are to be done at own risk and may cause a loss of warranty! If you do not exactly know what you are doing, please contact a qualified amp tech. There still may be high voltages remaining in the capacitors which may cause mortal injuries. As a result, it also significantly increases the pedal capability of the channel as well, especially when the player looks for a more warm and fat kind of overdriven sound.Īttention/Disclaimer: At this point, we need to state clearly that the autors of this site are not reliable for any damages due to any amp modifications.
This mod replaces or even completely removes a tone capacitor of the circuit leading to a more warm, rounded and overally balanced sound. Fortunately, there is a simple and effective way to tame the brightness of the top boost channel: the bright cap modification (also known as treble-cap mod). When using overdrive pedals, especially in the top boost channel, the distinctive bright character of the amp can become an issue leading to a harsh and screechy distortion in the worst case (especially in the CC series). You might have noticed that the AC30 is kind of a bright amp with lots of high frequenceys.
