Coming soon: the Orange Glory mod

How to add a choke to your Tiny Terror

So, after a couple of years since the British Glory mod development, I'm still looking for further improvements for the Tiny Terror.
Adding a choke is a very simple way to upgrade this little amp, improving its sound and its feel. It's also pretty cheap, so why don't try it?

I did the choke mod on my trusted British Glory mod Tiny Terror and now it sounds and feel INCREDIBLE, almost like a true boutique amp.

Ok, let's take a closer look to this mod.

News from the Lab!

Klein Fat Man Telecaster pickup set

So, I finally got to try the Fat Man telecaster set on our trusted British Glory mod Tiny Terror.

I was looking for some pickups that allow me to get the most of my old telecaster with my british voiced amps (both the Marshall JCM800 and British Glory mod Tiny Terror).
Regular tele pickups are so thin and trebly... I was looking for a beefier tone, with a solid bass response and maybe a less extreme high frequencies response (I hate ice peak notes).

Klein is a small company who produces quality hand made pickups. After asking for advice to mr Klein himself, I bought this Fat Man set.

These pickups have a distinctive P90 flavour, with enough output to overdrive your amp just hitting the strings harder, when playing at low gain levels.

The Fat Man set has a pretty aggressive sound, notes are thick and full.
Klen describes this set as "Fat, full, warm bass with thick mids, and a clean clear presence in the top register" and he absuletely got it right.

Fat Man pickups are a great way to give more "body" to the classic tele sound. With these pickups you will be able to get the most from your tele and your british style amp.

GEAR LIST:
The guitar used on this test is a '92 Made In Mexico tele, which was completely stripped down to bare wood some years ago.
The amp is my Brtish Glory mod Tiny Terror, and the cabinet is a Marshall 1936 with G12H30 speakers.
A classic SM57 mic was used for these recordings.

PREVIEW: Orange Tiny Terror British Glory mod.

Video preview of the BRITISH GLORY Tiny Terror mod kit.

This mod brings the Orange Tiny Terror really close to the sound of the legendary Marshall master volume amps (JMP 2203-2204 - JCM800 2203-2204).

This mod improves the general sound quality of the Tiny Terror using premium quality components.

The sound in this preview is the dry sound of the SM57 mic, NO audio plugins or effects has been added.  

Both the Tiny Terror heads in this video are recorded using the same settings.
