tsp17 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I just sent Brian a deposit and we are beginning the collaboration on a 35-40 watt jazz head. Single channel, super clean, touch sensitive and warm, portable. Think Princeton Reverb head on steroids or a Super Reverb head. It is gonna be cool. Maybe a matching 1x12 cab is in my future too....

Guest HRB853370 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Super Reverb? Wouldn't that connotate a head that breaks up quickly? Maybe you meant Twin Reverb. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetroitBlues Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Killer Blackface Princeton 112 or KBP112 Fender made a Princeton 112. It was a solid state POS amp... Hate to associate KBP with that model... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsp17 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 Super Reverb? Wouldn't that connotate a head that breaks up quickly? Maybe you meant Twin Reverb. Good luck. well, you are kind of right about that. the idea is a Twin Reverb in a smaller package. I was referring to a Super as a 40 watt Twin style sound. I was not aware that they break up early. Surprised to hear that with 6L6's, but life is full of surprises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early breakup depends on the user understanding how the inputs work.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsp17 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 The Bourbon Street The Blue Note The Take Five i am liking "Blue Note", since that is what i am after, that 60's Blue Note sound (Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, etc.), with the ability to get a little more modern (Peter Bernstein, Mike Moreno and others). Still debating 6550's vs 6L6's. Keep the name ideas coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

212Mavguy Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 +1 on the 6550's. Beautiful tube for what you are going to do. Big bottom, crisp top. Best choice from clean headroom standpoint too. Worth the extra weight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetroitBlues Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Mustang II? Then it would be associated with a Fender Modeling amp.... I mean it could be worse, could call it the KBP Cube or KBP Roland, but I wouldn't want to insult Brian... Just teasing Barry.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
