«  This is a deluxe reverb »

Published on 05/06/13 at 01:50
all-tube, two independent channels, a "normal" and one with reverb and tremolo.
no effects loop, line out, or percolator.
22 watts, I put mine in a Jensen P12R Alnico since the G12 was mounted folded (the joys of secondhand), external hp output is there if needed.
To switch from one channel to another requires a / b box.

UTILIZATION

Simply put sth at the other end of the jack and it sounds.

SOUNDS

Ideal for the rockabilly or country, you can do all of the time it is associated with good guitars and good pedals.
Fender clean sound up to 4, then it starts to crunch but it's starting to be strong too. Personally, I use 4 pedals with upstream (alberta, lightnin 'boy, mudhoney, super chili picoso ...) when I need a variety of sounds, and 7 with just a boost for a crunchy sound I personally love. In this case, I insert an attenuator between the amp and the HP (P & P 50)) not to hurt the ears of my colleagues in the game and not to offend the mesa of my fellow guitarist.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for a few months, I have other amp not especially bad (Cornford Harlequin, A Wai Jack White) and I played in different places on lots of stuff. Well this one does what is expected of him, the Deluxe Reverb. If you love it is filled (or nearly have still not push), otherwise we say that it is not one manufactured 26 January 1796 at 19h28.
The only thing I dislike about this amp is its new price. This also applies to all production Marshall, Mesa et al. When we see a mass produced amp is not really know where, sold by the thousands, is the same price as amp made by a craftsman in the unit, it makes me a little. (The harlequin channel 5 watts should be around 1000 euros, the white jack 15 watts and three channels around 1400 euros).
So yes, I really like this amp but my next deluxe reverb, I'm done.
