SECRETS of the Fender Bassman - "ABNormal Channel" Mods Unleash the Hidden BEAST!

In this video I'll show you how to modify a bone stock 1960s Fender Bassman AC568 or AB165 into a MONSTER amplifier using my "*AB*Normal Channel Mods. I'll show you how to add a Gain Control, a Presence Control, a Midrange Switch, an extra gain stage, and Marshall tone stack all without drilling a single hole or doing anything you can't undo later (not that you'll ever want to).
