Happy NEW YEARS!!!!!!
I wonder if it's out of the same batch as I have because this guy brought me 10 amps from N.O. and this was one of them. The model I have is a 200 but it's a 1X12. Looks pretty much straight forward. (2)6V6's and a rectifier 5Y3 a couple of 12AX7's and some old can caps. Tone and volume controls maybe. Jazz fest is also a possibility for this one.
6V6? Sounds more like a 5E3. I heard they were tweed bassman-ish.
I talked to the guy yesterday. It's only got 1 channel and it has reverb. Also, the amp has now gone from "sounding crappy" to no sound at all.
Catching his set at Jazzfest, I think I know why. He was using a compressor and volume control in front of a borrowed reissue tweed bassman. It sounded pretty cool but at some points he was pushing the thing to within an inch of it's life. If it was a longer set, I bet the OT would have gone belly up.
Also, I don't think it's the same batch. It turns out I know the original owner. He apparently had the thing "taylor made" for him.
Still haven't seen the thing though. Things happen slow down here.
