That looks neat. I am also considering cutting the cabinet to turn it into a head. This ...

Hi all, I think the mod is finished. Here are new pic and sound clips. Forget about the previous clips, as there were still some spurious oscillations in the circuit. This has been fixed. First, a couple shots at the pcb board with key changes located. All additional components have beed secured in ...

Yep, exactly 8) Go grab the Valveking schematics over there: Valveking Look how they move the tone stack around between the two channels: Fender to Marshall, HeHe! Look also at the effect loop and reverb location. I have recorded two sound clips. Beware, I am a poor guitarist :cry: These are to give...

It is just like the Windsor head. Two 12AX7s in the preamp. The third one in the Windsor head has no gain actually. It is the usual phase inverter to drive the push-pull power stage. The big difference between both preamps is in the location of the tone stack and the auxiliary circuits. In the Studi...

OK, I will go on on Sloan's thread because my mod can be adapted to the Windsor head and maybe others. So, here is the stock circuit board before the mod (forget about the couple resistors and straw wires that are not relevant anymore): http://www.quickfixcomm.fr/windsor/chassis-top3.jpg The three p...

Very cool, thanks for the update. I haven't been able to work on my head the past week or so. I see what you mean... Spending nights tweaking the thing is no good for productivity at work :? I am getting great cleans now, punchy and all. I have a problem though... There must be a dry solder point s...

Hi, all, I will start a new thread dedicated to the Windsor Studio mod soon. The Windsor head and the Studio are very different actually. They basically share only the 2 first stages and most of the power supply. From there, there are many differences. I have been working on a radical mod and I am a...

Awesome, this is good stuff. I finally got some more parts from the shop yesterday to be able to mess with switching the master volumes for both channels. This will let me rig up a test with the two channels and then I can get to work on making it footswitchable. The clean pre-gain will controll ho...

Mad. Skills. Awesome work. Do you have the facility to make demos? Thanks, man! I believe we are going to achieve something :D I have done a dry test, hard-wired run on the "new" clean channel. It sounds interesting, clean/warm with sparkles on the edges. The DI circuit is awesome. I will...

Hi all! Here are some pics of the ripped apart Windsor Studio. These show a mod-work in progress. The goal is to achieve a channel switch (clean-->dirty) via the Peavey remote-switch floorboard. Had to cut some pcb tracks and add a relay to toggle-switch input between clean an full gain. I am workin...

Welcome to the boards, Zorglub. Awesome first post. Thanks man! :D haha @ Sloan. I love you mate, you're a legend. Yes, kinda crazy experimenter with some style. That's good! Quick update: - I have had an in-depth look at the Windsor head's schematics and I believe I mostly get it now - I assume Wi...

Great first post dude! Thanks man for the welcome and additional tips :D I am going to rip her apart and take shots of all of her upskirts lol Will do this over the week-end. You're right, bypassing the first stage for cleans is the way to go for sure and then work further down the circuitry. I am ...

Hi guys, new here! I have found this great site and this particular thread while I was searching the Internet for Windsor Studio mods. I have had this puppy for one week and I am pretty sure it is a great platform for tweaks and mods. This amp does not seem to get very good reviews. It's been late o...
