Hence my "if you really wanted to" line.

Some of the stuff, like adding negative feedback might not be that hard, and changing the tone stacks from the Blonde style to the BF style would be pretty easy, but if you wanted to add the tube rectifier, that's a little more involved. Stuff I would do if I got a great deal on this amp.
(Now that I think about it, the omission of NFB on this version was probably an attempt to loosen up the amp once they added the SS rectifier...
