pippy Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Since March 1980 I've been playing a Music Man 2x12 '65' which has been more than capable for all my needs. It's a hybrid s/s pre- ; valve power- design. It was conceived as Leo Fender's own attempt to improve on his Fender Twin Reverb. I think he succeded. It can do everything from pure and clean to the most wonderful overdrive - and at very low volume levels to boot. It also has a built in spring reverb and tremolo effects channel (which is double the amount of effects I need...) The only real downside is its weight; it weighs 60lb. P.

cam011235 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 its hard to choose but i think if i had to choose one it would be this a Bogner-Uberschall.. I got a Bogner designed line 6 valve combo but would love one of these a les paul into one of these unbelievable ..pity the head only costs $4000 but they sound incredible uber amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 that brings back some memories i was using a music man head when i was young fellow when leo first started producing them..they really are superb amps that is great you got one..they had the best rep in the 70s and 80s I'm often surprised by just how many players have owned them (or even still do). Clapton, Knopfler, Gilmour etc... all used them in Music Man's heyday. There's an interesting topic somewhere on the web discussing the 'Clapton Mod' where he had some wiring trickery going on... Mine is one of the last of the first series ('74 - '79) with the silver plaques before they developed the RD and RP series. I bought it 'new-ex-shop-demo' when my mid '60s Marshall 2x10 combo packed in. With the benefit of hindsight, of course, I wish I had kept the Marshall, too, but I sold it for about £10 ($15) as I needed the space in my room........... P.

horand Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Maybe I am a bit conservative, but nothing I´ve heard is better than a good Marshall amp to my ears. I am pleased with the one I have, a JCM 800/2203. When it comes to singlecoils I also like to use my Laneycombo amp. Sounds great in the "twaangsound-area", but on the downside its very noisy.

MrNylon Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Marshall MB4410. A great bottom, very versatile settings. 300 Watts @ 4 ohms. 450 Watts @ 2 ohms, with an external 4 ohm cab plugged into it. It sounds great with any type of bass I've run through it.

Bluemoon Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 My Phaez Corona...a blackface inspired amp. It sounds amazing. 6v6, 25 watt. It is a bright cap eased in as opposed to a switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 one thing i loved about the music mans in those days was the overdrive ..man they were great amps Interesting you mention that....... On another forum I had been asked, by an owner of a later 'One-Thirty 2x12 RD', to provide a sound-clip showing what level of overdrive I was getting at low volume levels. My response was met with a fair amount of incredulity. To get that level of overdrive, he responded, HIS amp would be rattling the window-frames. Of the houses across the street. Another, very well informed, member who understands circuit diagrams posted a reply which explained how, on the '74-'79 amps, Leo Fender had arranged the bits'n'bobs along with four separate overdrive sections to allow for full valve-overdrive at any volume level. I can post a link to (that fairly hastily-prepared) said demo if anyone is remotely interested. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
