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.

First test made with an Orange Tiny Terror 15W all tube amp driving an Orange cabined loaded with a Celestion V30. The guitar used is a Charvel mod 6 with Floyd Rose and a Seymour Duncan Jeff Beck humbucker. I used an 8ch preamplifier: ELBERG MP8. The test is done with: GrooveTubes a1, Shure SM57, Sennheiser e906 and MD421. No compression or EQ has been used whatsoever. AD converters from a MOTU 8pre.
Ps. The 57, the e906 and one of the a1 are at the same distance from the center of the cone (something around middle way between center and edge). The other a1 is at the center and the MD421 is on the edge of the speaker.
These positions are ones I like best from each mic.

http://www.premierguitar.com PG’s Joe Coffey is On Location at the 2009 New York Amp Show where he visits the Little Walter Tube Amp booth. In this video segment, we get to hear and see their 15 watt combo and 30 watt head. The 15 watt combo has a chassis similar to the 1945 Tweed Deluxe and a Jensen P12N Alnico 5, 12″ speaker. It uses a pair of 6SC7 octal tubes as a pre-amp driver and a phase inverter (PI). It also uses two 6V6 push pull power tubes and a 5Y3 rectifier tube.
The 30 watt head uses a similar configuration to fender amps of the ’60s and ’70s. It comes loaded with a 6SC7 and a 6SL7 in the preamp circuit and a pair of 6L6’s power tubes. It also utilizes a 5U4 rectifier tube and uses a simple Volume and Tone control that covers both input channels.
