Joe Perry of Aerosmith – Here is a quick pic of our little tech area tucked away behind the stage in the Springfield MA arena. Back in 2015 I designed a custom circuit for Joe, which also included Custom Designed Mercury Magnetics Transformers & we installed this into (2) Marshall JCM800 2203x Reissue amps.

Fast forward - Joe wanted some additional control over the low end & lower midrange frequencies. We designed & installed 2 new additional control features effectively allowing Joe to be able to control how much low end & lower mids he wants in his tone. As per his request we installed them on the front panel of the amps for easy access.

Pictured in this photo is an older vintage Super PA amp that we have Modified in the past. It was getting a retube & we also have some more work we are doing (more to follow shortly). In addition to that we retubed & biased some amps, performed work on others as well as the sweetening up the rig over all.

Note – While there is a Variac that can be seen in this photo it is for tech work only. IE: There are no Variacs in Joe Perry’s or Brad Whitford’s rigs.

Have a great day, feel free to share as you like & don’t forget to do a kindness for someone along the way today – Trace Davis, President / Founder Voodoo Amps [more]
