The Eddie Bertrand Fender Quad Reverb amp restoration is complete.
It will be part of the SG101 back-line. It is a monster... This was Eddies gigging amp during the 70's. It has been restored to as close to showroom condition as possible, cosmetically and electronically..
Mad Maxx taking it for a test drive.

Eddie's Quad Reverb was REALLY LOUD. It's definitely no comparison to my '63 Showman, but it's one of the best amps I've ever played out of. It definitely earns a spot on my top ten list of amps. I would love to plug my Jaguar into it, and maybe even try it with an outboard reverb tank. Great find, Tim! |

The video cam mic limitations don't do this amp justice. Take advantage of a one time opportunity to play through it at SG101. You don't have to turn in up past 3. Here is max working at out. Volume 1.8. Reverb 2.5. Last edited: Jul 31, 2013 10:37:49 |

That sure is a sexy beast! (The amp, not Maxx. Sorry Maxx!) Otto & The Ottomans |
