Guys, I have a 12(ish) year old FBJ that is literally collecting dust in my music room. It was my first "real" piece of gear so I'm sentimentally attached to it, but man do I hate the sound that thing produces! I'm wondering if anyone has ever successfully mod'd one for a Garcia application, it seems like it could be done, but having never undertaking such a project I'm hesitant to start ripping components out of the thing. I suppose the sockets, tubes, pots, tank, and transformer could be salvaged but beyond that I wouldn't know where to start. What kind of circuit would work? I've always liked the idea of a master vol Garcia rig, to emulate the pre amp > separate power amp footprint, so the FBJ has that... curious if anyone has any thoughts.
Thanks!
Thanks!
