Looks great, Jeff, but I'd go crazy trying to figure out what to turn and how it affected everything else. I guess it's one reason why Ampeg is my friend--not much to mess up.
If I did, there’d be no room for the Epifani to breathe, gonna need a bigger rack. (Ahem)
Love the way that one turned out! And its a nice player IIRC.
Gotta consider airflow for sure. Does the Epifani have a fan?
I really loved the parametric EQ channel on my old Peavey. That old Mk III head had the limit of knobs and sliders for me.
To this day i still swear by that head.
it does not, it doesn’t get hot, just a little warm.
It is a nice player. The pickups are great. And the action is nice and low. It plays fast, even with the 1.72 nut width.

I'm going to slim down the neck on my IV to 1.5 before I do a fret level.
After playing your Silverburst, I'm kicking myself that I didn't buy those Epi Les Paul pickups that were for sale locally in the summer!
I’ve been fortunate to find three Thunderbirds with them. And now Dave has one. If you can get a TV Silver one, it has the later 1.5 nut width neck and those pickups.
It's a good idea to keep some space around it anyway. I get a little OCD when I see 1/2 rack unit gaps, but that's from working in Telecom.
I'm in "Mod what you got" mode now.
I hear you Brother, I hear you! They are heavy suckers, but can sound great. I know one fool in Louisville who sold his....
