Vox AC-15 Vibrato channel low volume

[sluckey]

You've probably noticed that the Vibrato channel volume is significantly lower than the Normal (EF86) channel volume. Here's a simple mod to fix that...

Pesky electronics student [dumb] question: Does that jumper also essentially make C25 not in the circuit anymore since it's shorted?

correct

Guys, I should add. Although this looks good on paper, I've never verified it. Hoping one of y'all will lead the way.

I am wrapping up my AC15 and am contemplating trying this.

Honestly I am shocked by how quiet the channel 1 is. But I am not sure that this is design as much as I may have another issue. It is a 1/4 of the channel 2 volume. Sounds like an AC4 in volume. I will flush out any and all existing problems first.

Im making progress on mine. Ill try it. I only got 2 resistors close to the 62k value. One at 67k and one measures at 55k. You think one of these is close enough? at least to test it. Can always order one.

Those are fine.
