Members metallica_00 Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 I like the Deluxe Reverbs most. They are a perfect balance of size and the right amount of volume, and the voicing sits in a live mix perfectly. The ideal gig amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BG76 Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 The 1960 brown Bandmaster. I had a chance to buy one for $700.00 when I was in college. To this day it was the best amp I have ever played. My 51/52 Deluxe is pretty nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bro Blue Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 Either the Bassman or Deluxe Reverb. Or the Princeton. Or the Twin Reverb. Hmmmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 55gibby Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 I like the II series amps (Rivera years). I own a twin of that vintage... great tone... takes two men and a boy to move it. I also have a deluxe reverb (1968 according to the transformer) that I love to death and much easier to move around, but a different animal from the twin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'm surprised at all the people saying the Twin. Maybe it's that quintessential part. I'd argue that there are other Fender amps that sound just as good clean... that can actually overdrive. I think the Twin is nice, but is a one trick pony. Pop out the middle two output tubes and you get this subtle, gorgeous OD at band practice volumes instead of concert volumes. You haven't really played a Twin until you've done this simple mod to it Of course it will never be a high gain metal amp but unless you're totally clueless you wouldn't buy a TR for that anyway.

Members lechip Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 some of my favorite Fender amps I've had in my lifetime are: Silver Face Pro ReverbSilver Face Princeton ReverbSilver Face Vibro ChampProsonic but I do agree that the Twin is the winner....if only I was strong enough to carry one around.

Members DaleH Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 The Fender amp I would like to own the most is a 1963-1964 blackface Vibroverb.http://www.thevintagesound.com/ffg/vibroverb_bf.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Les Paul Lover Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 Haven' tried them all, but that bassman is pretty fantastic. Not overly impressed with deluxe reverb or others. Certainly the Hot Rod series & the supersonic are not nice amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jhall Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'm a Fender amp fanatic and have owned 75% of the models they've ever made. I'll go with the Twin, but the Deluxe Reverb is a close second. This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BAXANDALL Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 Of all the Fenders I've owned and played this is the one that has stuck around so it must be the '65 Princeton tremolo for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mightysasquatch Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 "The blackface Deluxe Reverb, without a doubt. It's the absolute foundation of my sound, and I couldn't imagine playing with another amp at this point." I agree with this, and I have played almost all of them. The 5E3 deluxe & BF Vibrolux Reverb are the runner ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Hemroidius Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 64 Vibroverb RI with Cesar Diaz mods I demoed this amp briefly in store. In it I heard some of every "big three" vintage classic tube amp (Fender, Marshall, Vox). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
