hi gavin,
I just bought one and I love it. has a nice reverb and lots of warm tone.
I've heard about some possible mechanical problems with the way they come
stock, something about them needing NOS tubes or something
you may want to look into this. myself, I haven't had any of those problems
there's a few good threads about the amp (pros and cons) on harmony central
you may want to read
I tried a brand new one and one that was a few years old (they were right
next to each at the guitar shop)
and fell in love with the used one. it does have different tubes than the
ones that came stock but they are not NOS ones
I don't think the trem is all that awesome, but it's definitely usable (I
use a voodoo labs trem anyway)
the reverb is much much better sounding that the one on my hot rod deville,
and very wide without muddying up the notes.
I think the deville's reverb tends to muddy things up a bit.
don't know much about the hot rod deluxe but I've heard those are awesome amps
the deluxe is definitely loud enough
I have no regrets about picking one up.
it makes me wanna play all the time
