Fender Blues Deluxe Reissue

Published on 10/30/08 at 04:45
Combo - 40 Watts, 1x 12 "custom designed Eminence 8 Ohm speaker
2 channels (clean / drive), reverb, effects loop, footswitch included.
Weight 24kg ... it's the arm before and after a concert.

Easy adjustment (presence, bass, middle, treble, drive, reverb), but not accurate.

UTILIZATION

Simple setup at first but once you pushed hard I had to find the appropriate setting (normal tell me).
The HP may seem limited, but it is enough to test the INPUT 2, operate in not the "bright normal" etc ... to make the most of its grain and vintage blues well.
The clean is beautiful, always bluesy, it activates the TS9 and there it sounds severely garage.

For my part, I use single coil channel 2 with the "bright normal" activated and back twice (vs. Jaguer Jazzmaster Classic Player HH).
(The manual flash on the interest of two entries but that is its only purpose, all in English I think).

SOUNDS

I was looking for a sound close enough to the group as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, but more bluesy and at that level I blossomed. (He plays a Fender twin reverb in my memory).

Material:
* 2 Ibanez TS-9 Tube Screamer
Electro-Harmonix POG
Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special HH
Fender Jazzmaster Reissue (Japan)

Sound level, must recognize that it may soon sound "flashy" but just focus on "Presence" to "Treble" a little too strong for my taste.

OVERALL OPINION

I have for over two years.
What I like most is its texture, beautiful and clear sound ideal for the garage when saturated. The less is its weight but it's a combo bin so it's normal and if there is lack of precision of the buttons.

I tried a few models like Orange Rocker 30, a hot rod, a blues deville etc ... the last two are closer and less typed the blues deluxe for my taste. Orange has no effects loop, no reverb, and costs a fortune so I quickly made my choice. Otherwise I tried a Peavey Delta Blues and is very very good surprise is quite a competitor, cheaper but less reliable as saying.

Level quality / price ratio, it is aligned on competition but on some sites it is German or English is at a great price.
