* Finally finished the Crate Blue Voodoo 120, after a lot of recapping and modding.
It sounds decent now even for other styles not just that all round gain fizz as it was.
I added a choke and changed about 22 component values (installed sockets, will solder the chosen parts directly on the sockets), and redid a lot of solder spots + changed the very tarnished PCB jack-in connectors. Added four toggle switches to change some gain structure and high end content, nothing fancy, but usable and makes the amp from a very slight cleanish od/stoner rock/fuzzish od to 80s rock, the gain knob is now usable in all its range. Also added a white led to the clean channel and a blue one on the overdrive one.
A warmup video with some compiled takes here, the more 80s + smoother side (will make another video the more aggressive side at some point when the amp is boxed up again):
Woolier+Higher gain samples and fuzz type tones here:

If theres a way you could send me a list of your mods with a diagram.. i'd love that, i have a bluevoodoo im working on but that fuzziness is just annoying, ugh.
