Blackface heads. Prosonic or Deluxe Reverb?

Rowby1

It looks like my options regarding a blackface type Fender head are narrowing down on the basis of just what seems to be available.

If it was a choice between a Prosonic head or a Deluxe Reverb head, which would get me closest to "classic blackface" tone. I would even consider getting the amp tweaked if that was what was needed to get me there tonally.

Anyone any thoughts/advice?

Deluxe Reverb, absolutely. It's the epitome of BF Fender tone. It's marvellous when cranked as well.

I feel like I'm a stuck record. DrZ EZG.

Not ignoring your advice mate, just had the opportunity to buy either of the above options at a very good price. An EZG would be great but just a shade too expensive used for me at the moment.

Fair enough Rob. Don't dismiss the Dr Z Cure either, a lot cheaper and supposedly the non-trem side of a Deluxe.

I had a Prosonic combo, loved it, should never have sold it - but a Deluxe Reverb trumps it in just about every respect.

I'm interested to see what the suggestions are. I'm also after a blackface head but more of a low watt princeton concoction without term.
