Amp all 1970 lamp with "deluxe reverb amp" logo which becomes "deluxe reverb" (no sticks around the grill cloth panel as was the case in the first all Silverface 67 to 69). this amp is a marvel, the original hp is long dead, it is now equipped with an eminence from a blues deluxe. apparently weber factory hp good for this type of amps. The power tubes are JJ preamp and those are Mazda and Rca ... the footswitch from a deluxe reissue. no printed circuit wiring point by point to the old. careful anyway, even if they are strong, these old amps do not like humidity.
USE
So the trick is that you have many warm it. over the amp is hot and the sound is present. it really cash effects and complies with the sound of each guitar: a solid body or half body will not sound at all like it. the reverb is huge when pushed and tremolo is subtle. the amp sounds simple enough to solve: no gain, just one per channel volume, treble, bass, reverb, tremolo speed and intensity, there are few pots but they are quite effective and can spend a lot of time to seek the sound to the guitar used. The choice of lamps also plays heavily on the dynamics and the accuracies: we really rediscovered the amp, guitar and effects.
SOUNDS
This is simply the best amp for my use. as it is only 22 watts, you can push it without tearing their eardrums. careful anyway, from 5 it starts to get really hard, but there was this grain and this dynamic ... you can really make the sound with a pick and if necessary thicken with good pedals. it is a good compromise to the extent that we can play with a problem without a drummer or on stage without being resumed, and also get a nice clear sound at lower volume, for example, for a record. I use this amp with two fender mustang 1978 and vintage pedals: mxr distortion + germanium / OD850 overdrive Ibanez / Maxon PT999 Phase Tone.
NOTICE GLOBAL
Before this amp, I played for 10 years on a HIWATT combo 1976 (February 12 custom built ', 100 watts with reverb and vibrato ever backcrossing this model ...) I had beautiful couple the two channels, not do saturate and I never overshot at 0.3 under penalty master to cover everyone. I bought the HIWATT misery. I sold it to move to the deluxe reverb who returned me 500 euros. it is three times lighter and three times more usable in most situations. I think I always keep.
