[kaboozeus]

hyadoin,
need to know if there are identifying traits of a trainwreck modded amp,
bought back in the 80's and took it colonia with rob c aka frog and had ken tell me he did worked on it,
thanks for any info as i'm looking to have it tuned up as it has been sitting since the 1900's

Any photos? Specifically gut shots? Any notes written in it?

I worked on a Kenny Modded bassman. It had EL-34's and the circuit was changed to KF's circuits, with the values in pencil on the tag board ! Worked nicely actually.

There might be a Trainwreck sticker somewhere on the inside or maybe the receipt.

Another way to tell is he usually changed the power cord.

If it is marshal sound on one side and a clean sound on the reverb channel it might be his.

How would his power cord be different from any other tech changing the power cord?

He liked vacuum cleaner cords because they're super long and usually pretty dang durable.

I like the long grey IEC cords with blue/brown/green&yellow wires (European standards I think), they seem to hold up well and can be found in really long lengths for super cheap.

I get those odd ball cords at my local surplus center darn cheap.

the old vac cords he used for speaker cables

Oh yeah, that's right. I don't remember what he said he uses for power cords then, if he ever did say anything. I kept wondering about that too because most vacuums use two prong cords .

does anyone know if he replaced the tag boards or just moddofied the existing circuit stealing the trem

I source my power cords from $15k-$20k computers. I figure if this 9'-15' power cord is good enough for that, it's good enough for my little guitar amp. I even used one in my BF Champ build.

He left his calling card all the time in different things. Power cords also made a difference to him.....like everything else!
