I owned a 62 bandmaster head and 2x10 cabinet back in the early-late 80's and until this past friday, it was the best sounding amplifier i'd ever owned, right up until i got a nice new Fender Tweed Blues Deluxe Re-Issue. I am just blown away at how bright and clean it sounds. i cant wait until it's all broken in to see how much better it is. the clean tones are just so crystal clear and bright but it still has sufficient mid and low end punch. i may even sell or trade out my Crate 2x12 V50 Palomino once the fender breaks in, i wont need 2 hugely loud and clean amplifiers. just a week ago i swore i'd never give up that Crate but the Fender..............wow. i now have the sound that Keith Richards did back in the Stones' early days with my Classic Vibe 50's Telecaster and this Fender. 

so any other Blues Deluxe or Crate Palomino owners here?


I don't know--I bet you might find a Super Reverb one day that might change your mind! (yes, I "cheated", and know you just picked one up!)

Finally got on--had to use Elecsluther, but I'm here.  So, let me be the first (hopefully not the last) to welcome you, and I'm sure the people here will find your trades to be of interest to them, and the discussions you have to offer.

New to this forum--played guitar way back when (mid 60's thru mid 70's) and quit for a few decades. Started up again around 3 or so years ago and enjoying it more and playing better than I was previously. Not a great player--I have to work at it, didn't come as a natural talent to me, but I like it and most folks don't think I"m too awful--probably my own worst critic. Hope you'll find me hospitable, and if I can help anyone with their questions, you can rest assured I'll try my best.
