The MOST POWERFUL GIBSON AMP of the 1960s - TITAN MEDALIST REPAIR & MODS!

The big brother of the Gibson Atlas 50W amp, this is one of only 148 Gibson TITAN Medalist amps ever made. The TITAN was the most powerful Gibson amp of the era, clocking in at 90 watts. The only problem is, for all the potential in these amps, they are poorly executed. The wiring is atrocious and sloppy, the layout of the channels invites noise, the tremolo uses a 0A2 regulator tube and optical LDR, which isn’t usually the best sounding tremolo (I much prefer bias-modulating tremolo). This example had already gone through at LEAST three different techs, all doing mods and repairs before me, so this will be a fun one, to say the least. The mods include turning Channel 1 into a Marshall JMP / JCM800 2203 style preamp, turning Channel 2 into something approximating a Fender 6G6 Bassman preamp, and changing the tremolo to a bias-modulating tremolo based on a Fender 5E9 Tremolux.
