Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: reverb tank

Dan Bartley (bigtwangguy) - 16 Sep 2004 15:32:23

I actually haven't used the tremolux at a gig in years. Ever since I bought my
Fender "The Twin," not to be confused with a regular Twin, I don't need any
other gig amp. I guess I have to admit that I don't have any emotional
attachment to the 'ol tremolux. My desire to own a vintage tank is stronger. (I
don't own any reverb tank)
I always considered the tremolux to be one of the lesser collectable pre CBS
Fender amps. Maybe I'm wrong. Still haven't made up my mind yet, but I sure do
wanna get wet!
Just don't wanna get soaked by the deal!

Personally I wouldn't do it. I don't think a '62 reverb unit compares
to the value of a '63 blonde tremolux. Do you own other amps? If you
own a Showman, Twin, etc.. then you might consider it depending on the
sentimental value ot he Tremolux. If you own a RI reverb tank then it
is probably not worth the boost to go vintage.
