I know people hate the Bugera line...and for good reason really. But when they get down to the price of a pedal, sometimes they are tough to resist even that you know that they are fairly disposable amps. Regardless, if you have a 333XL and wanted to add a resonance control to it like the JSX has here are some simple instructions.

I should be doing one for the 6262 possibly next week as well.

Edit :
Here is the 6262 version if anyone wants it:

And took the time to tell me like I care?
 
Pretty sure a few guys here have bought those recently as they were blowing them out at lower prices. Thanks for the info.

No problem. That was the exact reason that I posted. I know people grabbed these here and there on the MF.com sale. I'm not trying to start the Bugera debate. I know what they are. I can make my own decisions if I want to spend $200-$250 on one. I actually picked up the 6262 on the sale and just used the 333XL that I've had for while as a test run in a sense. I felt the 6262 needed the adjustable resonance once I started playing it. So in the end you would have the same controls as the Peavey just with an additional reverb.

I've also seen a lot of bad info on these on what to replace. It's amazing how one bozo posts how to do it incorrectly, then other's follow without having a clue. Especially on something fairly simple like this with Peavey schematics readily available.

I see that. You have proven that with 2 of your 8 worthless posts in the forum. I know it's a challenge to create an account and hop on the Blades and Bugera hating bandwagon and think you are a cool guy for doing it.

bugera has sucked for oh .... 5 maybe 6 years since they came out.

Their suckiness in the amp world they earned all by themselves.

I wouldn't buy one.

As you were recruit.
 
I dont know....I snagged one of the 6260 amps for 250 shipped from musicians friend. Sounds pretty damn good for that price. :thumbsup:

:lol: :LOL:
I'm doubtful he will get that, unless of course it really is Dan. I should also edit my post to say 9 worthless posts.
 
Looks like they are dropping prices more. $229 for a 6260?
Man this is my best bang for the buck purchase ever! :thumbsup:
Sounds really really good toss a EQ in the loop. :yes:
 
Damn...that might have to be my back up....hopefully no fire though. Pretty great price :thumbsup:

If you get one either replace the power tubes or check their current right away. They can be really mismatched. I think this is why so many die early. One overloads then dies taking out other tubes or parts with it.
 
I had a 333xl for a time. Never had any problems with it. Sold it to my friend who still uses it in his studio. A bunch of guitar players have beaten on it and it is still going strong. The guitar player for Great White used it to rehearse before a show and loved it. Go figure. BTW, nice write up on the mod. Even an all thumbs idiot like me can follow it.
 
Hey Guys,

i stumbled across your post and was wondering whether I have to make sure to use a specific rated pot? - I got one of these Carbon pots lying around at home (link: http://www.produktinfo.conrad.com/daten ... 6_Mono.pdf).
Is it save to use one of these, or do I have to use one wich is rated for higher wattage/voltage (as far as i know my pot is only capable of max 125V)? I am asking because I have seen that there are also ones rated for 250V audio and 500V DC (should i use one of these??).

Thanks for your help, i am really keen on modding my 6262 to add some sex to the lower frequencies :P
