OK, this amp has ultra smooth break-up. I believe 50% of Frampton’s live tone is from the dual combo version of this circuit.
I prefer the rockets EQ balance over FDR’s. These units are every bit booteek level.
Upon delivery, my P90 ax grinded hard and rung like a bell. My jaw was on the floor. Super lush reverb on tap too. $300!!!
I’ve read that speakers, such as a Fane Axiom or Altec 417 will brighten them, tighten the low- end when cranked and increase volume.

It’s had its fair share of wear, some scratches here and there, but it’s been maintained well: the neck is straight, no cracks in the body, etc. sounds quite nice. The kind I have is a 94′ original 3-pick up model. A fine piece of equipment if you ask me.

Sorry the first one is an Em7 arpeggio.
He plays the chord and follows it with the arpeggio. Same with the Bm.

The lines he’s …
The lines he’s playing are based on arpeggios (series of notes in a chord)
He’s playing an Em arpeggio and then a Bm arpeggio with maybe a note or two from those scales.

Oh yeah dickdog. Yeah man! God! I can’t stand when people are off time and have human like qualities. When I’m jamming I always always always record what i’m playing into protools to a tempo map(cringing while i’m playing) then i listen to after i’m finished recording. This guy doesn’t have a clue.

Dude, if your going to exhibit gear on the internet, why dont you learn some more descriptive terminology beside Cool- Kinda cool-very cool! Also, when you noodle, get a metronome will you, your way out of time on the pickup on your jams. Another thing, I think you have the imporession that your a impressario, but your playing is average as hell.Finally, wipe off that eating grin.

I just scored a beautiful ‘64 Reverberocket.
The first digit in the serial number tells you what year it was built.
Hard to believe these wonderful amps have slipped through the radar.
The BEST reverb and Tremelo period!
Sadly the original Ampeg label CTS AlNiCo’s
are only meant to handle 15 watts, where the amp delivers
21 watts RMS clean and 28 watts peak wide open.

you gotta get the boutique crates to really know whats up, like the blue voodoo…..the low end crates make better toilets than amps.

I went to a pawn shop in my home town, and there was an original cherry red Gibson Nighthawk Special for sale. The gentleman wanted 200.00 for it, so I went across the street to use the ATM and I bought it. By far, the BEST impulse buy ever! i would strongly recommend one if you happen to run across one!
