Can I change the volume for the clean channel on my HRDville from Linear to audio to control the volume better here?

I have heard of the mod before but people only mention it for the Master which controls the drive channel only.

Sound engineers at our shows keep telling me to turn it down and I am loosing all my tone by the time they are happy.

Also should I go with 500k pots and do they fit or will I ruin the cosmetics of my amp?

Thank you for your help!

I actually have the back off of mine right now and mine (2001 4x10) is a 250K audio taper pot. I made the volume box for the effects loop to control volume and it works great. I also did the master volume mod among others. You can find it and a wealth of other info at this guy's site. Only mini pots will fit and they won't change how it looks from the outside. http://studentweb.eku.edu/justin_holton/

This is a worthy discusion for sure, why does Fender not use the audio taper pots ????

Why does my Blues Deville go from zero to KABLAM !!!! on about 2.5 on the volume ????

Someone here must have worked through this before right ?

sure wish we had more amp tech guys hanging out here !!!!!
