Fender “Pro Junior” (1994)
15 Watts 10″ Eminence speaker, i changed the first preamp tube to a 12AU7 to get more control over the amp, this way i can turn up the volume to 6 without any feedback
i’m using a Seydel “Blues Solist Pro” Harmonica in A and two different mics to check the amp:
1.Astatic JT-30 (early 80’s) plus a Boss Delay to fatten up the sound
2.Beyer M55 (late 60’s)
check out Seydel harmonica’s:

Why is it that the majority of tube powered guitar amps not use cooling fans yet produce much much more heat than solid-state amps? My Fender Hot Rod Deville Produces a massive amount of heat and it stays hot for hours after use and seems like a cooling fan would help.
Vacuum tubes tolerate heat more than semiconductors, and require a certain amount of heat just to operate. Natural air circulation is all that is usually needed.
What do i use to make my guitar sound like Jerry C.’s guitar when he plays Canon Rock? Very apperciated if you gave me the ‘type’ of effects pedal and not a company that makes them.
A little bit of reverb and delay, but not so much that it makes individual notes mush together. Actually im not sure if he uses those effects for the majority of the song… just the intro. Maybe some reverb in the song but again not much.
My friend has a habit of playing his guitar through a bass amplifier and I (before I got into playing music proper) used to play my bass through guitar amps. What, if anything, are the effects on the amp itself? I already know about what it will do for your sound; I just need to know if it is bad for the amplifier in any way.
Electrically, no harm will be done to the amps.
Playing a guitar through a bass amp…rock on. The Fender Bassman amp was originally intended as a bass amp. But, guitarists found out that it sounded great when you cranked it up. So now it’s more popular as a guitar amp than for it’s original intended purpose.
Bass through a guitar amp…as long as you’re not try a put a ton of bass through it at a high level, it’s fine. The thing you have to be careful with is the speaker itself. Guitar speakers and cabinets aren’t designed to handle a lot of low end (most roll off below about 80Hz, almost one octave above the low E on a bass).
If the speaker sounds like it grunting or you hear a rubbing noise come from the speaker, back off on the bass and/or the volume.

i was gettin a marshall stack, but the other guitarist is gettin that and we dont want the same amp
What stack are you looking at? It really doesnt matter if you have the same amp… what you should worry about is if you like the sound of it. Make sure you play the amp before you buy it. Fenders are nice, and so are Marshalls. Also depends on the style of music you are playing… a little more info would be nice.
i was thinkin of buying this today http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Acoustic-B100-100W-1×15-Bass-Combo?sku=482900 or something in the same price range better, i play punk rock and pop punk, blink-182, sum41, FOB, ATL, KOL, etc. can you tell me if this is a good amp. im diying to buy a bass amp i have always used a guitar one and sucks!

Back when I was butchering my Fender Precision, I had an Acoustic 260B that would knock down walls. I loved that amp and speakers but darn it was heavy to lug around.
I soon realized my talents lay as a music fan and could contribute by supporting acts by attending their shows. The amp is long sold but I kept the bass since it’s a 1962 model.
