Bluetron Blueverb

[Deric]

A friend picked up a Bluetron Blueverb and asked me to check it over. Sounded OK but he was having a hard time understanding how it works. Interesting amp. A lot of cool sounds but if you don't get what's going on there are a lot of really shitty sounds....

Anyways...overall decent build. Found a wire just hanging in air. It's a very short wire soldered to the brass ground plate. The only place it could possibly reach is the Deep switch. The Deep switches between 2 different bass caps and 2 different treble caps. Caps to the outer lugs and pots to the common lugs. There is a 10M resistor across each switch. The switch doesn't pop when switched.

Any ideas?

Contact the Blufolks and ask them about it. Really, they should be willing.

Phil,

It's my understanding that Bluetron is no longer. Do you have contact info?

Thanks Mark!

Sent him a PM.

That wire is for a traditional Fender Bassman AB165 deep switch configuration which is not the current configuration of this amp. I left it there in case someone ever wanted to use that configuration.

Happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the service and support of this amp.

Thanks for the clarification.
