I need another amp like I need an asshole on my elbow. I'm fucking drowning in tube amps lately, and I don't even get around playing em as much as they deserve
Still though, ever since I finally realised that there's a classic fender amp out there that's basically a reverb-less Fender Twin in head form instead of combo...I've been lusting for one like I haven't lusted for an amp in a long time
So anyone here maybe using a mid '60s Showman with a 4x12 cab and a bunch of dirt pedals? I've got my eye on a local-ish deal, but being a vintage fender and all, the price is kinda higher than what I want to spend on an amp I don't really strictly need right now
I had a Dual Showman Reverb with Showman 2x15 cab and it was like the perfect pedal mothership. Insanely loud, headroom, killer looks. Can do anything from disco to doom. I sold it because it didn't fit in our band van and that's another reason I'm a bitter old man today ...
I once had a blonde double showman (2x15) and a blackface showman.
Insanely loud and clean. I'm surprised if showman heads are commanding premium prices as they are one of the lesser desired amps.
