PedalDoctor FX Mods and Repairs. Making vintage effects pedals work again and teaching them some new tricks.

PedalDoctor FX started as a custom effects pedal repair and
construction shop and soon made the inevitable addition of
modifications to my list of services. Now that I have a shop and
the room to do so, I not only work on pedals, but I have an
insatiable affirmation for vintage and custom built amps and
usually have a few of them in my shop as well. After all,
effects, amps and guitars are what I call the "Trinity of Tone"
and you can't love one without the other two. Check out some
of the current repairs
and mods that I've got on my bench...

1961 Fender Reverb 6G15

Duplicating the "BluesBreaker"

Nothing compares to the sound of a true spring reverb!
This month I had the pleasure of working on a real piece
of music history; a '61 Fender Reverb Unit! These sonic
beauties are getting harder to find and are definitely
worth having if you can find one for the right price.

A while back Will Owsley approached me to convert his
'68 Marshall 50-watt "Plexi" head into "Bluesbreaker"
combo. I usually will avoid modifying a vintage amp like
this mostly because I'm a bit of a purist and I already
consider an amp of this caliber to be sonically elite but
we weren't altering the amp itself too much so I jumped
at the chance to have a near-mint Marshall on my bench
to work with (who wouldn't!) Check out the transition...
