Members bentley Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've currently got a Fender Blues Jr and I love it for a fat clean sound with my Jazzmaster and I like that it takes stuff like the DS-1 and SD-1 well. I'm looking for another amp to match it in wattage (15w) but is good for a decent amount of gain and that I can boost over the top. I'm gonna set it up so I've got a clean signal from the Blues Jr running all the time and then using the other amp for dirty sounds. Any ideas?

Members Chirpy_72 Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've got a Victoria 5112 ( Tweed Champ w/ 12" ) that really cranks out the OD tones. It's only 5 watts though, so most likely you'd have to mic it ( unless you run it through a 4 x 12 cab ... then you could most likely do an unmic'ed small club.

Members PurpleStrat Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 If your anywhere near VA I have a Laney TT20 all tube class A head that would work well. I used to run it with my Blues Jr. just like your lookin to do. 15 Watts switchable down to 5 watts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kewlpack Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 The Tweed "NOS" Blues Junior has a couple of extra mods and sounds great (with or without stomps). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members endo23 Posted June 1, 2006 Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 Get something small like a Fargen Bastage and then run it wide open. It'll be closer to the Volume of your clean Blues Jr. and CRUNCHY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Originally posted by newstrat60 is it really better than the Blues Jr ? I suppose that's a personal preference thing. I already have a Univalve and a couple of old(er) Fenders ('72 Twin, '83 Super Champ, '84 Princeton II), so my next amp purchase will be the Vox. I was extremely impressed with it at Winter NAMM. It's a very cool sounding amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
