I did this one with a low volume and plan to do a few more at a higher volume and with pedals. This one is just simple and at bedroom levels. I used my Telecaster and a Maxon AD-80 for some slap back action. The "Fat" switch is on. I had the Volume around 11:30 and the Master around 8:30 - 9:00. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7DUEEePIz8 Here's one with a little more volume and doing an "A min" Hendrix'esque Jam with the Strat. Pedals used were a Fulltone Clyde Std., Fulltone Deja'Vibe, Chicago Iron Octavian, MJM London Fuzz (Ge), Landgraff DO, and Maxon AD-80. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9Fs3lSzsXs
Nice country-ish feel - your playing is very good. You've got a James Burton-type thing happening there. Cannot beat TopHat - clean or cruch TopHat is IT.
Cool tone man! Man, I wish Brian still offered the silver grill and logo! In the near future I'm going to order a King Royale head and 2x12 cab. Would love to get it in maroon and silver... Great clip and playing. Cool amp, congrats!
Sounds great, I like the 2nd video. You've got the right idea re the slapback delay. That's always been an essential part of my sound with my TopHats......don't need no stinkin reverb! What speakers are in your amp?
Good combination. Brian shipped the SD with a G12H and V30. But many people don't care for V30's in open back cabs. The Greenback is a good substitute in that amp, IMO. It's a little less efficient than a V30 and therefore you have to drive the amp a little harder to get the same volume. Pushing a tube amp is usually a good thing!
Brian even stated that it was odd for him to use that combination of speakers as he doesn't recall doing it!
agreed! love the second clip dude.been trying to decide between the CR and SD lately, as well as getting myself a strat, that was a good ad for both
