Damn that single P90 tele is tempting AF.

 

[MagRick]

My fiesta red and p90 dream will come true this year

I was enamored with the Vibro Champ until I read digital reverb.

 

[Average Joe]

The Pro Reverb could be interesting.

I was enamored with the Vibro Champ until I read digital reverb.

The originals didn't even have reverb though, right? Would a spring tank even fit in there?

The Pro Reverb seriously looks like the DR/TR crossover we've been waiting for, plus sensibly only one channel.

And finally the Ben Gibbard sig Mustang!

The Tonemaster reverb is pretty great.

 

[Shnook]

It’s been many years since I’ve said this, but a few of the new offerings look very interesting. Now, if they just play as good as they look...

 

[flume]

Ummmm...ok....mind blown!

I was toying with an all natural Mustang custom order!!! Will pounce on this!!!

— just saw it’s hard tail—- damn! Game over.

 

[Montroller]

What are the chances the Pro Reverb will have a power scaling option? It does say "modified". If it does Im in. Im in the market for a new amp and Im trying so hard not to make any impulse buys till after I see what NAMM has to offer.

 

[Benz2112]

Those Noventa pickup models look fantastic, they must feel that people are going to like them.

 

[Edoardo_P]

OH MY GOD that brown jazzmaster is the closest thing to my warmoth I've ever seen, and looks amazing. gotta have it.

 

[edwarddavis]

Yawn

 

[scelerat]

The Noventa series looks great. Never had the bug for an offset but that Jazzmaster is tight.

25 years playing guitar and I still have the little SF Vibro Champ I bought very early on. It wasn't my first practice amp, but it should have been. $750? Steep for a beginner or someone who needs something Champ-sized. Part of the fun of real spring reverb is its mechanical mid-century funkiness, but the OG Champs never had it, so I see this little addition as a small bonus, saving you from buying a pedal. Tone-wise nobody will notice, including you.

 

[Zakko]

Congrats to Jason Isbell on the sig. MIM lookin like it.

 

[cvansickle]

Damn that single P90 tele is tempting AF.

My fiesta red and p90 dream will come true this year

I'm going to bring my car around...

 

[nasonm]

I like the Noventa 1 pickup in burst

 

[Beng2040]

The Pro Reverb looks very promising. It must be a 1x12 at that size, right?

 

[Nevets]

Even though I already have a Vibro Champ I want the new one.

 

[Johnny Alien]

The Pro Reverb looks very promising. It must be a 1x12 at that size, right?

A 68 should be 2X12 but it should also be two channels so they are obviously not following any rules.
