Tone, wow. Wonder why the TPS guys never sound anything like that good, with the same amp
As for the amp tones it sounds predictably amazing.
Im thinking of buying one for our rhearsal room, if I can find one...
(formerly customkits)
Mr Thorn (and that Strat of course) is a very talented player and is intelligent enough to play to the equipment's strengths, fair enough.
Makes me wonder why Fender fans bother with all the boutique stuff when *that* is available.
Maybe it's a "special" one and worth shitloads, I've no idea, but if I was looking for a Lazy J etc, after hearing that I'd be looking at old Fenders, end of.
Actually I still want one!
Great Vid.
Super Reverb is one my all time favourite amps of all time.
Sadly I don't often play big enough gigs to justify employing mine live.
What are the reissues like? I had a quick go on one once, it was nice but from memory a bit too bright/glassy, but didn’t get to do much tweaking.
No - they NOT glassy/bright at all. The Bass control on these is amazing. You can dial a 5 on the vol and be in a nice zone comfortably BUT dial the BASS too past 5 and the volume increases exponentially. THIS is where the massive balls from this amp comes from Big BASS and 3/4 dialed volume.
I have had the 59 Bassman RI and have Tweed Deluxe and of course the SR and the SR is the best amp of the lot and better than any of the other amps I have/owned.
The Achilles heel in all SRs is the pup pup Tremolo when the dedicated 12AX7 goes off the boil.
These amps are HiFi spatial and deliver any tone you want with a pedal. You don't need a stack if you own a SR

Several times I’ve bought gear based on his demos to then find tonal disappointment when the new shiny gear is subjected to my ham fisted efforts.
did you see Josh Smith nail the SRV tone on TPS last week too, that was ridiculous
