Well i got my Gal back. Man what a difference. The second channel was so in your face. Now its so smooth when going from ch 1 to ch2. Also the delay issues are so much better:)) if you dont have this mod done to your Galaxie or youre thinking of selling???..... Spend the $$$ and have it done. I cant wait to.gig with this badboy!!!! Thanks to all who have helped me with this great amp!!!!! ;D

Shiny! I am always glad to hear a happy story about owning a Galaxie. I heart my unmodified number 22. I may get it "updated" some day. But since I pretty much do not use channel 2, no rush and no worries.

I heart my #30 unmodified. Like Jan said I might get it modified some day.
Enjoy a great amp.

Great news Jamie. My Galaxie GAS is now out of this world. Looking forward to hearing how it does after a few gigs.

As I just posted to the Galaxie thread in BS&T;
What a deal on Dr Z's most burning, churning, rock 'n rolling, shimmering and swirling box 'o tone.

I did some playing with the Galaxie at Volume! I have to Say CH1 gives my 67' Super Reverb a Big time Run for the $$$$ ;D The second channel cranked was kind of giving me a real compressed squashy type sound??? I couldnt figure out waht was going on, I took the chassis out and Checked the Bias, It was Running very Very High, I readjusted to 30ma and man This amp just kills! When you pick lightly it offers nice cleans dig in a bit and it yields nice breakup Ala Neil Young! Ch2 just Rips, My Delay that was crazy is sweet and Warm. SMH! Still trying to figure out why this amp was not the BIGTIME seller it should ahve been. I have one now and dont plan on selling, This amp is giving the Remedy a Fight, I will be out gigging next month and that's where its really gonna shine. Oh yeah the Weber Silver Alnico/Redfang 2x10's were the best of all! I used a 1x12 Gold Close 2nd and a 2x12 Vintage Correct Greenback loaded Cab was 3rd , Played with mostly a Strat loaded with Kinman Blues and My PRS/DGT model

Nice info Jamie and agree with your comments and giving the Remedy a run for the money. And like you my favorite speakers were the Dr Z 2x10 combo cab. However I have to add the Tony's 2x12 weber silver/blue 50w alnico semi open back cab ruled!

Yeah I'm thinking on Trying to get that setup going The Webers 2x12 's Thats one combination I haven't tried in the 12"s. I'm thinking the Silver Bell Alnico and the Legacy12M Would be KILLER!! I only have 1-2x12 right now and its Loaded with Old Greenbacks Pretty Killer with all my amps I have my Eye Open for some Weber Silvers/Blues Alnicos. The Galaxie Just Sings man. If I would have bought the Galaxie First I dont think I would have purchased the Remedy Honestly. Im not saying that I dont like the Remedy but That Big Fendery Sound Just Is The Cats Meow for me. However I 'm planning on using the Remedy maybe a Stereo thing, That would be cool or an A/B Fender meets Plexi Sound. TRocks Sound Clips Are Smoking! Maybe one day I'll be able to figure out how to record and Upload some of my stuff

… I only have 1-2x12 right now and its Loaded with Old Greenbacks Pretty Killer … If it gets better than a Galaxie with a pair of old Greenbacks, I want to hear it.
