Damn son.

What's the difference between the Gibson and the Fender reverb tanks you have?

The fender is basically the Dick Dale sound. Uber rich in the upper register, almost swells on itself and creates that cybal-like crash sound.
The gibson is a great rock reverb. It's got the tail to be ambient, but it's extremely dark compared to the fender. It's also solid state, so it doesn't overload with verb crashes like the Fender.
The tone on the fender can be dialed back to sound similar to the gibson, but who would be crazy enough to do that?

I just remembered Skunk Records band The Ziggens, who played an eclectic mix of Christian joke punk, but had a couple surf songs thrown in there as well.
The song Miserlou is actually based off a belly dance tune. The original tune is esscaping me, but DD changed it by adding the trill picking and was challenged to play a song on only one string.
Full circle
Listening to the album “Belly Dance from Lebanon” by Omar right now!
