Members denimboy Posted November 3, 2007 Members Share Posted November 3, 2007 I might trade my JCM 800 for a Fender. I don't know which one to look first so I'll ask for suggestions. What is your favorite Fender tube amp (head or combo) (30 watter +). I play lot of effects so an effects loop is appreciated. I also want an high gain/overdrive channel. I play mostly indie rock, post rock and new wave. I like it dirty. I know a store that has some vintage bandmaster, bassman heads and other vintage models.

Members MegaTom Posted November 3, 2007 Members Share Posted November 3, 2007 The new Twin Amp for me. Not too long ago, I was on the market for a replacement, but I couldn't find anything to match it... except for the Rivera Fandango, but that is much more expensive. It does have a dirty channel, but I don't think it carries itself very well with the gain cranked any higher than 2 or 3... but the clean channel can take any dirt pedal you throw at it.

Members The*Ataris Posted November 3, 2007 Members Share Posted November 3, 2007 I own a Twin Reverb, but if I could own a Pro Reverb, I would... I'd also kill for a Bandmaster. That's probably first, actually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members starsailor803 Posted November 3, 2007 Members Share Posted November 3, 2007 Twin Reverb by a mile. I wish I had one. If only it had a 1/4 power switch like the Twin Amp it would be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members trlkvsky Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 I know a store that has some vintage bandmaster, bassman heads and other vintage models. Out of curiosity, which store are you referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members songsforbears Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Just got my '65 Twin Reverb Amp reissue on Wednesday. It's the winner so far. If my old '59 Bassman reissue had a vibrato unit, then it might take the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mark7171 Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 deni, you might enjoy the post gain tones added by the kasha quik mod. it wouod give your 800 2 channels, and a additude. yeah, the deluxe or twin are worth owning.

Members jb1911 Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 vibrolux or super reverb You have great taste. My favorite 6L6 Fender is the Vibrolux and my favorite 6V6 is the Princeton Reverb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent choice. I have the Dual Showman Reverb, but with a custom made Fender style 2x12 cab with Weber California speakers (the 2x15 is too much of a hassle for transport right now). Sounds beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kishjor Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 I'd get that bandmaster if I was you. A very choice amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members milosch Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 I love my Super. Been running it with one speaker and a load recently to cut down on the volume around here. But I know it can fill the space if I get to that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MattCrane Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 I would like a bassman or super reverb or vibroloux. I have this my and carrying this, and my rhodes is killing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Destructobot Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Super Reverb!!! Low enough wattage to get that tasty Fender overdrive going, plus 4x10 for a nice big full sound. Second choice would be a vibrolux, kinda similar but with half the speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members M900 Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Twin reverbs are great... But for practicality sake, I have to satisfy my Fender GAS with my 69 Bassman, which is an excellent amp. c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ambient Exposure Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 teh bayeesmaiirrn I would have to agree. Because of a great deal (1/3 of the RRP and 8 months old), I ended up with a 410 HRDeville. Once it was re-tubed, it sounded phenomenal clean.

Members SirJackdeFuzz Posted November 4, 2007 Members Share Posted November 4, 2007 Man they are almost all GREAT amps, but for me, my top 3 has gotta be : * Bassman (w. valve rec - NOT S/S rec.) * 5E3 * 2x5E3 (a beefed 5E3 w. 4 6V6's) My 2cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
