Safety Warning! Don't mess with this unless you know how to discharge your capacitors so you do not get shocked.  I am not an electronic engineer so be careful with any instructions I give you.  I learned this from Gerald Weber with Kendrick Amps at one of his Amp Camps.  It worked so well with my 1960 Bassman that I felt it necessary to make the mod to my 1959 Bassman.  It will give the bass more punch and clarity which is always good.  To get the full instructions, you would probably need to go to a pro amp tech.  There are differing opinions on this mod but from experience, I know it works and Gerald has been building and repairing Tweed Bassman amps for at least 30 years.
