I agree, I love the tone on Tin Pan Alley when he used Lipstick, (Charley).

IMHO dumbles, two-rocks, fuchs's and other botique amps are waaay overpriced for what they are and they are too hard to figure out quickly. plug into a super reverb or twin, crank that sucker and presto! thats all you need to know.

I recently just purchased a Fender Deville 2x12s and it has an amazing SRV tone. I was very impressed with its sound.

Little wing...Vibroverb
I think Texas Flood is a veritable clinic of great tone. I hear a lot of Vibroverb..the 15" just has a "bigness"

I'm surprised you hear Vibroverb from 'Texas Flood' when it was recorded on a Dumble Dumbleland bass amp. That's how Stevie Ray Vaughan became interested in Dumble amplifiers.

I'm not sure what's in that rack, looks like a tuner, something with a bunch of knobs possibly a preamp, and something else.

Sounds good, the only problem is getting it across the border into canada if you buy in the states, cuz the duties and stuff get pretty complicated. Still sounds like a good buy. Whats it like in comparison to the Fender SRV Strat, or the Eric Clpton strat??

Hawk


btw, if you didnt get one yet, you may want to consider a japanese 62 RI. i just bought one from guitargai.com and I absolutely dig it. according to some folks, some of the japanese made strats are equal or better then some of USA sreissues. Now that would be an interesting topic Smile
