Kuz Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 For getting me reacquainted and excited about using my Chicago Blues Box RoadHouse (boutique "Super Super" Super Reverb clone). -The Headstrong Lil' King (boutique Pinceton Reverb) needs new 6V6 power tubes... -The Carr Rambler (boutique Deluxe Reverb) has a spike in the high-end that I can't seem to eq out with the guitar I am using (on the Pentode power option).... -The '67 Vibrolux is ALWAYS a good choice, but I wanted just a little deeper and rounder sounding tone..... So I said to myself, "Do I REALLY want to haul this big 'ol bad boy to practice tomorrow? " (I am playing the whole Contemporary Service on Sunday so I need to sound my best and I am using a new guitar- more on that later- that could benefit from the big ol' 4x10 Super)..... SO I broke the CCB Roadhouse out, fired it up without changing a knob from PSP and...... Oh my ,oh my , oh my..... LOVE lost, and LOVE RE-FOUND!!!! Now who wants to chip in for the Chiropractic bills, I feel I just might be carting this big ol' fella around everywhere again!!!!! Thanks Rob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And why should I have ever questioned Buddy Guy???!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetroitBlues Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 You can bet your Sean on the fact Buddy Guy doesn't haul those around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredZepp Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I do like the sound of 4 x 10's and a warm, sustaining tube tone. Very nice stuff.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
212Mavguy Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 My friend of 34 years bought me a Milwaukee brand dolly as a gift, it can lay down and run as a 4 wheeler, has BIG wheelbarrow tires that can be pumped up hard enough to roll with no effort and not feel the cracks in the pavement jarring and rattling the tube grids. Was a wow moment when I put a 100 lb Leslie cab, a 45 pound head, and 10 more pounds of effects and cables stacked on it sitting on all four wheels (two 4" Then was a bigger wow when I lifted the handles and traversed the 100 yards from my minivan through 3 sets of doors to the stage. Less then a tenth of the effort was expended than carrying that poundage by hand. Just sayin' because there is no better place than praise, fellowship, and worship for bringing the amp that feels the most inspiring to play through....and once you get a dolly like it you have major help with all your rig moves from then on, light or heavy amps.

yoslate Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 So, I guess that means I don't need to bother trying to talk you out of it...yet? But when you do get tired of lugging it, you have a buyer! Easily one of the five best amps I've played over the last forty years! Embarrassed about my playing in the clip of Randy's tune, from Saturday, but you get a little taste of the round clarity of that amp, at low volume, with my Tele (which has Tom Short's Windy City's p'ups). The Bluesbox was a joy to plug into, and John was generous as ever in allowing me the privilege. Thanks, man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never sounded better than with your hands. BUT it did sound awfully good this morning!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfan Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 That amp stood out at PSP for all the right reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
