Hey thanks for posting the link to the epi V Jr mods.

Recording with a small amp is becoming a consideration as I break out of the DI mold, (to a degree :D)

I use a Vox DA 5 for practice. (Also have the blue desktop ToneLab). The DA 5 has a switch to adjust the output for 5W, 1W, and 0.5W which is the setting I use in the house. 0.5W is pretty loud! So an Epi V jr and a power soak would be a workable solution for my set up.

I'm very pleased with the BLA mod.

Cheers.
