pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I just stumbled upon this site, offering a kit for $50 that sounds great. Does anyone have any experience with it? From the description, it sounds like exactly what I'm looking for - a less muddy sound, with options for a subtle overdrive. Also, do I need to buy anything addtional? They talk about the tubes, but I don't know anything about the inside of my amp, so I'm asking. [EDIT] I figure I should probably put the link in... http://thetubestore.com/bmtrio.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984 Guy Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I did that mod to both my VJrs. Excellent results for little. You don't need anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 As long as we're on the modding subject, is there a way I can connect a second cab? I'm also looking for a volume boost, and I figure a second speaker wouldn't hurt. I was originally looking for a 2x12 cabinet, but if I could add a second Valve Junior cabinet I'd prefer that... for cosmetic reasons. Would I add a second 16-ohm output, or could I just add a cable splitter and connect both? I noticed your avatar, so I figure you're the best to ask.

theshrewz Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I did the Bitmo Trio mod. It made a big difference in the sound. It was easy to install, and took about an hour. If you can read, and use a soldering iron you should have no problem. I also changed both tubes to JJ's which made noticable improvement. Highly recommend the tube change, as it costs 20 or 25 bucks. Please post your findings when you do the mod. Blessings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 If y'all say it was that easy, for $50 I might as well try it. I'll keep the tubes I have for now, and see how it goes. I'm not sure when I'll do it, though... I have one major project going on now, and a guitar that needs paying off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pohatu771 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 I know absolutely nothing about the amp... I don't even know where to start at Sewatt.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjones200x Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 i found it easier to order the kit. Very good it is too! worth the money. Yeah the parts are only a few quid but the instructions are very clear and helpful for future reference SEWATT is good but people like to talk technical even when you say your a beginer. I have found it useful once id played about with my valve junior. I spent a few months reading on sewatt and a lot makes sense now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984 Guy Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 True. But for the beginner the instuctions are well worth the $40. you get less than $10 worth of parts and $40 for the instructions... check www.seawatt.com modd'ing details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
