I bought a broken Lancer off eBay to fix up for my girlfriend for Christmas. She's always played acoustic but wants to learn electric. My question is what type of builds would be good for a new electric guitarist who is probably going to play mostly rhythm on it? She doesn't have any pedals, and I know she want a nice clean, but she'll need something crunchy so she can play the parts she usually plays but with a good overdriven tone. If possible I'd like throw in some Fenderish reverb, but my main priority is to get the clean and overdriven sounds as good as possible (I think 5 preamp tubes should be sufficient). I haven't had the time to look at B+ or any other values yet, but I know the amp did come with 7591's and has 3 6eu7's and a 12ax7 and 12au7. I'd like to use 6v6's and 12a_7's throughout the amp. Can you guys and gals think of some good builds for chimey beautiful cleans, and some tight classic rock styled overdrive?
Thanks for looking!
