Hi guys,
need some advice with choosing an amp. Unfortunately, there aro no good music stores around, so I can't just go and try out a bunch o amps. I'd like to select a few models and then look for this specific amps to give em a test drive.
I'm 100% blues player, I play a lot of memphis and soul blues tunes, think of BB King vibe mostly. Additionaly, I kinda like those early electric chicago blues tunes, with rounchy, throaty, rough guitar parts. I'm using my beloved ES 345 for cleans and P90 equipped ES 330 for dirt.
I think of blackface/silverface Fenders mostly, for smooth, cleanish sound, plus, to make them dirty, with some dirty booster or drive pedal. I'm a home player, not gigging at all.
Twin Revarb was my first thought, but this thing is stupidly loud. It was blissfull, but to much of a sound I was thinking about Deluxe Reverb, Vibrolux Reverb or Super Reverb. Does this amps provide me louder, crean tones with buckers?
Nowadays I use my Tweed Delux clone, modified to bring me more clean headroom, but still it gets crunchy around 5 with humbuckers and beneath 5 it's a bit to thin and to bassy at the same time. It sings with P90 nicely.
Any sugestions? I think I choose 3 or 4 amps with your help, guys, and then try to find em for testing. Oh, and I'm looking for tube amp, not modeling or ss.
Thanks!
