Re: RI '65 Deluxe Reverb Amp needs help...

royaltoneguitar - 16 Oct 2004 12:28:19

Thanks Brian and Gavin for RI '65 Reverb advice. It doesn't seem
likely I'll get it to sound good for surf music. Buzz in Hot Rod
Lincoln uses one and gets good vintage tones out of his, I'll try to
track him down to find out what he's done with his. I'll post if I
find out good info from him...
