The Amp Garage

Hello all... Dr. Eric - thanks again for getting this little gem back up and running. It actually belongs to pickup guru David Allen, and like all loaner gear, if it goes down on "my watch" I find some great hands to make things right! This is a GREAT sounding amp. The Bass channel is savage on ten,...

Thanks for the info on the reverb unit, guys. I have to concur, Doug - it's definitely a thing of special beauty! So this is what the three-knob stand-alone Fender units sound like, eh? Nice! Lou Hey Lou:) I have one of the newer Fender Brown Face reverbs here that is quite nice, not like the rever...

Great sounding clip, Doug - especially the reverb. Is all the reverb coming from the Allen? Does the Allen use a spring tank? Thought maybe I could answer my own question, but I don't see mention of the Tube Reverb on the Allen Amps site... Hey Lou - sorry for the delay in getting back! Dr. Eric is...

Hey Doug, Great to see you here. I remember visiting your place with Jelle say back when. Had lots of fun hanging out with you and Henry. I need to schedule another visit sometime soon. Kind regards, Darin Hey Darin!!! So sorry about the delay in getting back - really swamped at the moment. Your ca...

Hello all. As promised, here is Dr. Eric's lovely Vibrolux Reverb - WHAT an amp. The addition of his Allen Tube Reverb didn't hurt either! 1984 Fender ST62-TX Strat > Allen Tube Reverb > c. 1964 Fender Vibrolux Reverb Clip: http://tinyurl.com/qzwp8bo GearTunes Page: http://geartunes.com/gear/amps/vi...

Welcome aboard my brother! Be very careful with this crew, next thing you know you'll want to make an amp or two.......or three. Hey Dr. Eric: Thanks again for the introduction, really appreciated. Per the DI clips and the speaker demos, I'm hoping I can make a contribution here that will prove hel...

Hi Doug, Welcome aboard! This is a fun and informative place. The T40 band I referred to was the Wirly Burleys. IIRC, our Doug had just graduated from GIT. We rehearsed in Los Angeles. Julie on vocals, Greg on drums, and I was playing bass in that band. We took a trip to Big Bear for a gig, not rea...

Hey M: - thank for your post and kind words! And yes, Dr. Eric is a gem - Cheers ~ Doug;)

Doug, I like the concept on your web site, of showing the recording chain, and having some interactivity over it. The simplest improvement I would suggest is just this: if it's a guitar, for example, allow a sound clip for guitar straight into amp, no effects, SM57. That's baseline, and it should b...

Welcome aboard, this is a great community of builders and tone seekers. We were just kind of having fun, and hopefully that's what came across:) That's why I liked it so much. You guys were like kids in a candy store, and I would be too if I got a chance to play a real Dumble. I also liked that you...

Hey Doug, welcome aboard. I really liked those Dumble clips you and Goofydog did. Do some more! :D Hey Blackburn - thanks! You actually inspired an idea that deserves some deeper thought. I no longer have any of the Henry Kaiser amps on loan, but I do have one of Jelle Welagens's ODS builds here. M...

Short version. That is hands down the warmest reception I've ever had from an online community - thanks for that - wow!!! Lots there that deserves more of a response than I have at the moment - but again thanks for the exceptionally warm welcome:) Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads here - Cheers ~ Do...
