I actually used the effects in the Delta King for my first go at it yesterday.
Here’s the quick start guide for anyone who’s interested .

I’m going to have lots of fun with this using different heads cabs and combos with pedals .
I definitely get why that pedal shows Mick and Dan bang on about Wet & Dry so much because it sounds awesome .👌
 
Fell back in love with the Silverface Vibrolux this past weekend. Played clean, clean, clean
That Fender Vibrato/Reverb/Squishy-assness is so addicting. :love

I put Greenback 10s in it years ago and it is a little extra gooshy as a result. Like a nicely Poached
Egg it just oozes.

In related news, I may be old-ish, and a little hungry. :LOL:

Congrats on the rediscovery. The silverface stuff is so under appreciated as is the vibrolux IMO. It’s kind of like a double Princeton Reverb more than a bigger Deluxe which I think people assume sometimes.
 
Excellent comparison! Never thought of the Vibrolux in that way before. :idk

I think I have grown to actually like the Silverface and Brownface Fenders more than
the legendary Blackpanel Fenders. I do have a Blackpanel Tremolux that is pretty bad ass,
though.

Still need me a DR. I tried the Reissue Silverface DR and didn't bond with it. I am always
looking to add another Silverface. :beer
 
I'm permanently like a pig in shit lately, when it comes to amps. I'll post the list again, in order of boner inducement:

Mesa Boogie Mark V. I love this amp. It just kicks royal ass. In every way imaginable. It is my favourite amp by far. King Charles is crying permanently because I won't let him sleep. But that's a different story.

Fryette Sig:X. I just picked another one of these up recently, and it is a really hard amp to describe. But I love it. Part Marshall, part recto, maybe with also a bit of Mark flavour. Insanely flexible with 3 channels, and each channel having its own boost, and also each channel having a less/more gain boost switch. Clean channel is gorgeous.

Orange Rockerverb MKIII 100-watt.
I've really found my love for this amp again recently, particularly with my Wampler Tumnus acting as a boost for the gain channel. It really does sound unique. One of the best tones it does is cranking the clean channel, using the attenuator to bring the level down to a sensible amount, and you'll get something quite vintage Plexi-ish. I love the fact it is a British made amp, made a 10 minute drive away from where I live. If it ever needs a service and my regular tech can't do it, Orange are insanely helpful and a great company.

Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier (2018 MW version).
Now, fully accepting that this amp isn't the holy grail Rev F or Rev G model.... I don't really care about that... this amp fucking slays. 3 channels, with the clean having a very excellent pushed mode, as well as the typical Mesa clean. Which is glorious. The various raw/vintage/modern modes all sound different from one another, and you can get a very wide array of sounds just through tweaking those and the channel knobs.

Diezel VH4. This amp has a character and a texture that is synonymous with the Diezel sound. It's a 4 channel amp, with lovely cleans and break up tones on channel 1 and 2. But channel 3 is the crunchy demon that everyone knows it for. Takes pedals really well as well. I love layering this amp with other amps to give the full tone some overall butt-punch.

Marshall JVM410HJS. The Satriani version of the JVM. 4 channels, each with 3 modes. Everything about this amp is killerrrrrr. Well, not the effects loop. It is a bit pants after doing some comparisons. But the built in gates are stellar. The tweaks Satch made to the circuit make the amp more usable than the original, although I'd like an original side-by-side at some point.

Diezel D-Moll. I've gigged one of these so many times over the years. A very flexible 3 channel amp, with midi. Worked brilliantly with my Helix. It is thick and sludgy without any pedals. But boost it with a Tumnus, or SD1, or even just an EQ pedal, it really comes to life. Lovely mid-cut feature too.

Diezel Hagen. Kind of the "modern" take on the VH4. Doesn't really sound like my VH4 though; they're very different. I love this amp. It isn't mine, I just have it on semi-perma loan until my old guitarist from TNBD gets around to selling it. But until then, I do have a bash on this every now and then.

Laney VH100R. I don't really use this that much, as it needs a service, but this are amazing amps and I will always try to have one in my back pocket. I started off with one of these back in 2007, and used it thoroughly in TNBD up until 2011 when I got my first Sig:X amp.
