MGR/Hotz « Fender Hot Rod DeVille 212 »
Published on 08/09/03 at 15:00 Well...I had been playing on the same old Hughes and Kettner Silver Edition amp for long enough. It wasn't loud enough, big enough, or toneful enough for what I needed. I decided that it was time for a new amp.
I'm a good friend with many of the people down at my local music store and one of them had a used DeVille. It was every thing I wanted and more. How can you beat an all tube amp for &600!!!
What I like...um lets see...It's all tube, which don't let anyone ever tell you that you don't need all tube...IT'S FRIKKEN AWESOME!!! It has great tone and enough volume for anything. Very user friendly and lightweight...perfect for any gig. Oh yeah...it also has duel gain opptions for creamin' to screamin' distortion.
The only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't have three channels, or a second volume...or something like that. I play lead as well as rythm guitar and I need the ability to go from loud to really loud. (Not to say that the amp isn't already really loud...let's just say I took it outside to see how loud it really goes...the cops were coming before I put the volume past three...)
It's built like a tank...I'm hiding under my DeVille when the tornadoe comes.
Very high quality. Totally awesome looks too.
It's loud. It's clean. It's dirty. It's all tube. It's the best tone this side of (Insert anything with more that two sides here...). IT'S FRIKKEN AWESOME!!!
