Check out the Miracle Audio website. This seems to be the mod that started it all. Can be done for you or do-it-yourself.

I just had one installed in my old 1983 Nashville 400. It really improved the overall sound of the amp. I noticed that I had to move the shift knob from 800 back to the straight-up position. Killer tone, but still not quite as good as my old Evans FET-500 LV (large cabinet).

I'm no good at soldering, so I did all the mechanical tear-down stuff. The instructions are real easy to follow. Then I took the board to a tech friend of mine to swap out the parts. After I got it back from the tech I reassembled everything.

The kit was $99 and the tech charged me $25. It was well worth the money.

Hello Ron,
Our Nashville 400 "tone enhancement" kits cost is $21.31 for the parts and $2.50 for the schematic diagram. The parts kit comes with a list of parts that need to be swapped out. There are no circuit modifications in our kit or the Miracle kit. That's the reason we say that it is a "tone enhancement" instead of a "mod".

If you send your amp chassis to us here at the factory, the parts and labor charges are less than $55.00, plus freight. I can be contacted toll free at 1-877-732-8391 to discuss my first hand experiences with this particular kit.
