In the late 70s, Fender started making all their large amps with Master Volumes, Gain Boosts, and Ultra-Linear output transformers. This resulted in more headroom and power output, but it was also a controversial change amongst players, who sometimes claim these changes hurt the tone. In this video, we'll repair this completely original example of a 1977 vintage example and demo the tone to see if this is true.
