According to him, you're OK to simply take out the diodes, or lift one end. :D]]> Live Sound Ricochet https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/paged/2/#post-171627 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/paged/2/#post-171624 Thu, 13 Apr 2006 18:04:51 +0000
I'd get on Google and read every page you can find on modding the Marshall amp you're looking at. A good place to start is Steve Ahola's site: http://blueguitar.org/ He's also a great guy to ask for helpful advice!

PS
What famous marshalls also feature clipping diodes for a special "edge" to the sound/to create the overdrive? Ive heard that Slash's signature 2555 has them.]]> Live Sound Terminator https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/#post-171453 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/#post-171450 Wed, 12 Apr 2006 13:26:09 +0000 Live Sound Terminator https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/#post-171450 https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/#post-171407 Wed, 12 Apr 2006 03:56:41 +0000 Live Sound gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/live-sound/diode-clippers-in-tube-amps/#post-171407
