That amp was a prototype of an attempt at 2 sets of preamp tone controls with the second set switching on with the non-HRM type overdrive. With the advent of my "BlackTweed" models I abandoned the idea. Any low plates(read Fenderized) non-HRM should be able to get close to the tones on the clip.

I enjoyed that. Very nicely put together demo. Nice to hear some relaxed groove with harmonic openness.

Awesome tones and melody line.

No, that's just Dave giving me a hard time about letting go of a JBL G125-8, possibly the best 12" guitar speaker ever made.

New Redplate

Post by angelodp »

Just waiting for delivery on my new Redplate amp. I will get some clips up soon. Henry thanks for a smooth process on the back and forth and for building what's going to be the amp of my lifetime.

You are going to love that amp! I would'nt mind giving it a spin myself. My Blackloop is keeping me very happy though. :D

How did you talk Henry into a black cab? Maybe we're wearing him down a bit :o

Great tune, with perfect guitar tones all the way through. Henry, all I can say is, I hope your production capacity is upwardly scaleable...
