SpeedRacer	Re: Pro Rev distortion - is this one of the 8-ohm amps, and if so, have the speakers been replaced with the wrong imp? (some 68's have a pair of 16-ohm speakers stock.. very wierd stuff) - is this one of the "hybrid" bias set ups? (you have small cathode resistors, & a non-pol cap connecting the cathodes)? This set up sounds extra lousy when overdriven.. follow the BF schematic & layout to fix many tonal problems. - I know this is a lame suggestion, but it works a lot of the time.. have you used the #2 input for your higher output guitar?
