...amps, I would say that you are definitely going to have more reliability with a blackface amp. Honestly, they sound very much alike with the blackface amps actually being a lot cleaner. Leo was consta...
...amp, just didn’t sound right to me, during a band practice. Was it my guitar, the amp, the room, or just my perceptions? I wouldn’t claim to know, but it has happened to me several times. I usually sw...
...Surf, and I replied that they should master 2 octave scales in all Major and minor keys, or at least words to that effect. While that is hardly a fun prospect, it is a great way to train both the hand...
...practiceamp is 15w not too powerful but my tube amps are 5 and 6w. my Surfy bear is great with the solid state less great with my low wattage tube amp.
The blonde showman is a 80watt tube amp and th...
...amp. I still have it, but haven't played it in years. The clean models aren't that bad for a practice pedal platform.
It was the sounds I got from this with a Gretsch 5120 and Holy Grail reverb that...
...Surf, because it’s something I want to play, and something that audiences usually enjoy. In Tucson, it’s unlikely that a pure Surf band would find many opportunities to play, so we combine Surf with o...
...amp advice, had people coach me on buying a guitar, I sold an amp, bought an amp... and had a lot of fun.
I actually don't know anyone In Real Life that is moved by surf melodies like I am. I like kn...
...amp- which is very useful when DI'd through a full range PA.
I know those things don't sound like they make for an exciting surf cab but they are the practical reasons I love it. Its very light and...
...amp Pedal that I use in my non surf band for everything.
That’s a German brand, so I guess is sold mostly in Europe. I am a big fan of it, also got their tube guitar amp.
...amp. Where that is concerned, it sounds good unplugged. I’m surprised by the range of this guitar. It sounds like a Surf machine, but on the rhythm circuit, I can get pretty close to the classic Jazz...
...amp. I usually play through a Winfield Tremor, which is basically a ‘62 Princeton, with some minor improvements. Surfy Industries state that this is not an effect, but instead, is an amp enhancer. I’v...
...practiceamp and the amp finally got squirrely. So being cheap (er, frugal), I went with a bass amp for my guitar and bass. A Fender Rumble 40. I put it in bright mode and turn the mids and highs up w...
...amps, I think modern solid state amps have reached a place (at least for surf tones), that we do not need to rely on vintage tube amps to get an incredible sound live.
...practices. Usually on jazz or surf with a custom 7 lb. Jazzmaster. I won't sell my '64 Bassman (converted to combo) but love the Quilter products. Of course every amp gets a generous dose of spring...
...SurfyBear metal, though.
I wouldn't mind having an amp that can do blackface fender tones as well as a variety of other tones so the Rivera-era fenders or the Rivera amps seem kind of cool, althoug...
...surf music I realized the amp had some drawbacks.
For one thing, it broke up way too easy, by the time it was up to drumset volume it was quite distorted. Atlow volumes the tone is somewhat anemic. ...
...practiceamp. I was half-way through building a 6G14 Showman clone in a Twin reverb cassis, but between emergency job changes, Brexit and a pandemic where my income dropped to "racking up debts at vel...
