Title: I'm considering this amp Post by: 72sg on March 29, 2010, 05:17:40 AM I'm going on soundclips of Fender's HW reissue, and I'm more than a little motivated by Clapton's tone with Steve Winwood. I know nobody's going to get that John Shur custom tone, but maybe in the ballpark?
Here's the stuff I like: - 12AY7 at V1 - bias taps - half power switch - I assume you could also use 6V6, 5881 etc. - beefy iron - Head form factor - chassis pics appear to show carbon comps selectively used I would prefer Switchcraft over cliff jacks, but that's minor. The biggest drawback is the lavender colored faceplate. ??? It clashes with everything!
