Members echodeluxe Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 i had a line on a reverberocket but the dude sold it last week and left the damn ad up. he was asking $290!!! damn guy got my hopes up. {censored}ing guy. anyway, theres a jet j-12t near me for about the same price in good condition. i know the reverbrocket would be loud enough, but the jet? its got trem and that awesome ampeg reverb so im figuring it will sound amazing, but i dunno. loud enough?

Members TJSmitty Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 Loud enough for what? Recording, definitely. Jamming, definitely. Small clubs, certainly if you're the only guitarist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted March 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 yeah thats a help. most of my gigs are mic'd so im guessing yeah. i always worry 15 watts wont be enough but i want a blues jr and then this popped up. i was gonna pick up a hot rod deluxe but people seem to think that they are worth $600 used these days. god damn.

Members Amplifier Worship Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'm currently paying off a J12T and I'd say its loud enough if your getting mic'd up. mmmmm... the reverb is tasty cavernous love. Get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roy Brooks Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 I have a Jet 12R, similar to the 12T but with reverb instead of tremolo. I have played gigs in small rooms with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members echodeluxe Posted March 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 Get the Jet.They stay clean forever too. i heard the opposite. i also heard that the tremolo kinda sucks. plus its not footswitchable which is kinda lame. the blues jr i posted in that link hs a celestion g12l 35 speaker and billm mods for $400. seems decent.

Members johnrambo Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 there are a couple of cheapish jet reissues on ebay right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MakuseruSukotto Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 Keep looking around for a Reveberocket then. You can get them for $350-450. AMAZING reverb. Infinitely better than a Blues Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely better than a Blues Jr. i dont hve the luxury of waiting round really. i want to grab something before the tour in april starts so i have till april 7th to get something. i think im gonna go with the blues jr unless a hot rod deluxe pops up in a sensible price range.

Members I was The Funk Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 I play one. Its definitely loud enough and I play in a two guitar band. the only thing that could be an issue is the headroom. With a humbucker guitar like my Sheraton it breaks up in an early AC/DC way at about 3. With a strat you get a similar effect at between 5-6. Its a great sounding amp. I don't use the trem much, but the reverb sounds great pointed straight up. Tone knob is best straight up. So basically you only have to deal with a volume knob. Just a pure, kick-ass amp. Tkaes pedals well. I'll probably never need anything bigger. Any place thats too big for it will mic you anyway. I played an outdoor gig with it once unmicced and it kept up fine.

Members echodeluxe Posted March 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 yeah the headroom would be a bit of a problem. i play a sheraton too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MakuseruSukotto Posted March 26, 2009 Members Share Posted March 26, 2009 Headroom problem with a Jet? Maybe I'm thinking of a SuperJet with tons of headroom. And if you don't mind paying a tad more, theres several Reverberockets ending in a few days on eBay right now. By the way, How's was/is the tour going Chris?
