Gibson Echoplex inpt level?

[DialaThos@aol.com]

Hi all,

Just curious if anyone knows... on the Gibson Echoplex units (white), are 
the 
input resistors still the "modified" type described on the LD FAQ?  As in:

>>>Change R30 from 82.5 K to a 22.1 K 1% metal film resistor
Change R10 from 2.21 K to a 10.0 K 1% metal film resistor>>>

Mine seems to have too much gain on input to really handle a preamped 
signal, 
and does seem a little sluggish (but workable) on output.  Of course the 
input was also totally fried when I bought it, so I'm always wondering if 
the 
distortion I hear on input is some kinda residual "stuff" from that repair 
job.  I 
seem to be able to get distortion without the input LED even turning 
anything 
other than green.

Thanks for any info,
Tom
