I've been thinking of tweaking my super reverb a bit. It's got some excess bass, I never turn it up too much, I was considering changing some values in the tone stack to tighten it up a bit.
For instance, I know that Twins have a .047 where the Super has a .022. I imagine this was to compensate for the extra bass the 12" speakers gave, but my Emi Ragin Cajun speakers have plenty bass.
I know reducing the .1 cap would reduce some bass also but I don't want to go too far. I want it to be full and punchy, while keeping it 'tight.'
Also, do some people optimize the cap type for the frequencies? For instance, do you prefer a yellow Mallory for mids and an orange drop for bass? Or whatever?
