This is a demo of my 1975 Fender Deluxe Reverb amp, this thing is the best sounding deluxe i have ever heard. I searched high and low, black face, silver face, drip edge, you name it i tried it, THIS AMP HAD IT ALL! Not only did the sound blow me away when i turned it around i found out that it had everything original and in working order, caps, tubes, speaker, even the power chord had the “do not destroy” tag on it from fullerton california. It is in amazing condition 9/10 and any guitar sounds good through it. So before you turn your nose up to it and say “oh it cant sound that good its a silverface” LISTEN to it! When you find the right amp it doesnt matter what year it is, what panel it has on it, ect. This is the ultimate fender amp.

And sorry to y buddy Gearmandude, this demo looks like your demos but the only reason i did it this way cause i was using the Zoom on the floor where the mic sounded best haha.

SOUND SAMPLES @ 06:31

This video shows the Palmer DREI Triple Single Ended Amplifier explained by Markus Torvinen (Palmer Engineer) and Robin Henlich (Palmer production manager).

The Sound of the Amp was recorded trough a Palmer 4 x 12″ Cabinet with Celestion Vintage 30 Speakers and a Shure SM57 microphone.

The Palmer DREI design is more than just a visual extravaganza – it mirrors the concept and the circuitry. For the purest, most natural distortion only a single-ended design will do.

Single-ended tube circuits are straightforward and simple, providing the most organic, raw tube sounds possible. In contrast to the more powerful push-pull designs the output of single-ended circuits usually does not exceed 5 Watts. That is why single-ended circuits are mostly found in small practice amps preferred by many top-notch players for recording.

Dating back to the first days of vacuum tubes single-ended amplifiers are nothing new. However, the Palmer DREI incorporates THREE of these providing three times the output power of a standard single-ended design! Moreover, it accepts a variety of output tubes which all have their own unmistakable sound characteristics.

The EL84 is bright and “British” sounding with tons of distortion (think Vox amps), the 6V6 provides somewhat darker tones with a smoother “American” distortion flavor (think Fender), and while it is tight and bright at lower volumes the 6L6 becomes progressively darker when driven hard. With the Palmer DREI you can mix and match power tubes from three distinct amplifier tones and thus create your own voice.

Three different single-ended amps in a single unit – that’s the Palmer DREI formula!

Join Sean Halley as he shows you how to deep-dive into the thick tube tones of DT50. Hear its four classic voicings (American clean, British crunch, class A chime and modern high-gain), and see how the Bogner-designed power amp section automatically reconfigures key elements like class, pentode/triode, and feedback to match the preamp settings for each tone. DT50 gives you the ideal “jumping off point” for each tone — but from there, you can change settings and fine-tune your tone — or create something new entirely.

Buy the Blues Deluxe here… http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/Guitar-Amplifiers-and-Speakers/Guitar-Amps-Combos-and-Cabinets/Guitar-Combos/sc1585/p3414.aspx Think Fender and for most people a Strat or Telecaster will come to mind, but let’s not forget they also have a history for making some of the finest amps on the planet. Just as Fender got it right first time with their two iconic guitars, the same has to be said of their amps. It’s amazing that in a world brimming with technology and miniature gadgets galore, that no one has come up with a better formula for amplifying guitars than the good old valve. It’s little wonder then that Fender offer a range of brilliant reissues from the ’50s and ’60s. Here we have the tweed covered Blues Deluxe.

This combo weighs in at 45lbs and is solidly constructed. Height is 18.75″ width 23.5″ and Depth 10.5″. There are three 12AX7 and two 6L6 valves plus a solid state rectifier. One 12″ Eminence special Fender design 50 Watt speaker delivers the sound. There are two channels, superb vintage Fender clean and the bluesey drive channel with a host of features.

Independent Gain and Master Control’s for the drive channel. A bright switch, effects loop, reverb, presence, middle, bass, treble, drive select button, drive, volume and further bright switch. Finally the power and standby switches. All mounted on a highly polished chrome panel with retro looking chicken head knobs. This amp is capable of producing the classic Fender clean tone and punchy blues rock sounds with ease. Comes with channel footswitch.

I feel if your toying with the idea of an affordable classic Fender style gigging combo, you’ll find no better match than with the Blues Deluxe. Just add a couple of your favourite pedals for a great set up. Highly recommended by players the world over.

Peavey Valveking 100 Head and Valveking Slanted Cab

Playing with a Fender Texas Fat Strat which is an awesome guitar that they don’t make anymore :(

I use no effects whatsoever it is straight from the guitar into the amp. I do however use the Peavey Remote Switch (Foot Switch) to switch between the clean and lead channels and to toggle the boost volume and/or gain (boost), all of those features are found on the amp though.

This video is basically meant to give people a good idea of the ValveKing Amplifier and Cab.

I have done a lot of research to find what would be the best half-stack I could buy for the money. My conclusion was that the Peavey Valveking 100 was the best fit for me.

This amp is VERY loud, and Very Versatile.

I have it on less then 1 volume in this video and it was still so loud earplugs would probably be a good idea.

Keep in mind that a tube amps distortion does not generally sound good until pushed to a very high volume. I still feel this amp sounds good on low volumes and can be used as a practice amp. But I know it would sound even more amazing at high volumes!

I also considered buying a Bugera 6262, and a B-52 AT which I have heard great things about both, but I also heard those amps are VERY UNRELIABLE. They are built with cheap parts apparently and can break down at any moment.

Peavey Amps have the reputation of being extremely durable, they pretty much last forever. I still have a used Peavey Bandit 75 which was made in the 1980’s and it still works fine.

Overall, I am very happy with this amp, and I hope this video helps people make a choice when considering buying a new amp. Peavey products are an incredible value for the money in my opinion.

Don’t Forget to check out my band if you like this video! www.myspace.com/infinityundone
