One thing I’m really coming away with from these passed two tours (39 shows) is how much I like the Quilter blocks. I had the chance to use the version 1 Bass Block, a Bassman 100 and a Tone Block 202 in many different situations—varying sized rooms with vastly different acoustics, volumes, and speaker cabs—-and in the end, everything considered, I see absolutely zero reason to tour with a giant, heavy tube amp. Touring this much is an entirely different set of circumstances that have certain practical requirements. Like it or not, weight, portability, consistency, stability, sound-technician convenience, adjustability actually matter. Also, believe it or not, the TONE coming from these things is not a compromise. They actually really do sound GOOD! In a live situation, I never once felt that anything was lacking and that I preferred to use the Bassman 100. If anything, it was the other way around. Several nights when using the Bassman 100, I was too limited in eq adjustability to compensate for the issues of the room and inherent acoustics. Also, FWIW, time and time again, audience members, other musicians and sound techs all commented on how good those heads sound in a live situation. Great hearing your experience from the road. The Surfer Joe band has been touring harder than any other surf band in the world (that I know of)and this is honest insight. I whole heartedly agree with all of this. I've been using a Deluxe Reverb Tone Master since Wiped Out started playing live, and the weight, portability and adaptability all made it a better option to me than it's tube counterpart. In the case of Quilter and Tone Master 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.

Not many shows left: Oct. 3 MEMPHIS, TN Oct. 6 NASHVILLE, TN Oct. 8 ATLANTA, GA Oct. 10 CHARLOTTE, NC Oct. 11 VIRGINIA BEACH, VA Here’s an extra special “hell yes!” to everyone that has put in the effort to make it out to a show and much respect and thanks to all the bands sharing the stage! The act of being physically present at shows like these is what makes strangers that share a passion into an international tribe of friends and that means something! — Insect Surfers The Tikiyaki Orchestra The Scimitars Lords Of Atlantis Fiberglass Jungle - Surf Radio Top

I can answer you personally I use a quilter tone block 202 on my small fender cabinet (probably made out of an old super amp, I bought this chassis like this years ago) loaded with a 15” eminence EPS-15C — Lorenzo "Surfer Joe" Valdambrini (www.surfmusic.net) Top
