Vintage Fender Tube Amp Heads

[Caesar]

i wonder how that would work with something not stereotypically Fender, like a 4x12 or a 1x15?

I may find out, but I'll probably chicken out and get a 2x12.

alright, daisy chained channels 1 and 2 today at band practice.
results = pretty kewl! i guess i only tried it on my own and it didn't wow me too much, but with the band it was sweet.
i set channel 1 like i normally do (bass 0, treble +1) and set channel 2 (bass -5, treble +5) at a pretty low level for some nice added chimey high end.

Im looking for a new amp, something that does cleans very well and theres a pa 100 on ebay, thinking of nabbing it, only problem is i would need a cab too. Your making it harder to not buy it though

If it's a good sounding cab, it's going to sound good with the bandmaster. Years ago, I used my Bassman thru a stock Fender oversized closed 2x12 with Jensen speakers, Peavey ported bass 2x15 w/ Black Widows, and a Laney 4x12 with 70 watt Celestions. All w/ pleasing results. And you know the open 2x12 and 4x10 cabs are going to sound great.

I use the bass master thru a 4x12, 2x12, and open 1x12, and the 2x12 + 1x12open combined, and they all sound good. I'd love to try a 1x15" cab with a Redcoat and an amp based on that design. I'm filling an oversized closed 1x12 with a Tonker to try next week... Cab isn't quite big enough for a 15" tho.

I almost bought that one, but I thought the maintenance would be a bitch, and it's been there a while. I also thought my neighbors would appreciate not hearing my vocals amplified.

maybe if its been there for awhile i can get him to lower the price a bit, save some money for a cab to go with it

I might do the Egnator Tourmaster 212X. It's got Celestion Elite 80 which are basically the same as Custom Lead 80s. It has the close back / open back option which I think could be cool with this amp.

I used a '64 Bassman for a decade+ with a closed back 1x15 with a JBL something or other in it. I measured volume by SPL by reaching down and feeling air move.

Worked very well for guitar, especially when run through synth/filter stuff.

I always jumper the channels. I have the bass dimed, the treble at 6 and volume at 4 and a half. This is the best setting with my 2x15 cab and the p90s in my lp special.

how many watts is a fender pa 100? 100 watts? im assuming every channel. noob question
