    You have found something that I have been trying to explain to amp makers for a very long time: 15" speakers are amazing for guitar!! The amount of air that they move is spectacular to the point of almost being theatrical. More, the speakers themselves are more than capable of handling the frequency of a regular guitar extremely well. Why no one that I've seen is currently making 15" cabinets for guitar is beyond me.
    Also, you mentioned how it is you are able to feel the notes. YES!! Quick story: the first time I ever saw the Eagles was in 1977. They had Community Sound cabinets flown from the roof of the venue and there was a bank of them pointed right at my chest. They opened with 'Hotel California' and every single note coming from Don Felder's 12-string neck punched me in the sternum. It was the most miraculous experience of sound I've ever encountered...!

      Studies show that speakers' tone does not change no matter how loud or quiet they're run, UNTIL they're pushed to the point their excursion is maxxed out. The same is true for transistor amps. In contrast, of course power tubes sound utterly different depending on the gain.
      (To test this, put a mic on a speaker with a transistor amp, record it at 0.1 watt and 1w, 10w, 100w, and you can subtract the signals in your DAW and there's nothing left, because the recording is exactly the same. Try again with tubes and its quite different.)

It didn't work out in my teens and early twenties. Had to work different full time jobs. Never time to write or record. All changed when i was 26, joined a highly paid and constantly busy wedding band. Its an incredible feeling to earn money from your passion. I have plenty of time to write and record my own tunes also. Shoutout to all the musicians trying to make it, or just play music. Stay hungry and stay passionate.

    Back in the 80s I was in a surf/ garage band and I was playing through a Fender Twin Reverb 2 head {Rivera designed 105 w, with channel switching} into one of the big Bandmaster cabs with 2 JBL K120s. I could crank clean channel so loud and stay relatively clean , that soundmen were always telling me to turn down ! The other guitar player in my band had a 400w Boogie bass head and a 4x12 Ampeg cab and my Fender could keep up no matter how loud he turned that boat anchor up. Never needed a distortion or O.D. pedal with that amp, the lead channel had great tube distortion at any volume. But for clean and loud, easily as good as this (great sounding) Dual Showman, and fantastic reverb as well.

Sounds pretty good, but I also need to take it to the doctor for upgrades, like new 6L6's, rather than the 5881's that just won't handle the plate voltage this beast puts out!
    Those JBL 15's are amazing guitar speakers, only rivaled by the original Celestion BlueBells, (totally different usages, of course).

    In one band that I was in our Hammond B3 player ran his B3 through a Leslie tone cabinet and/or a Dual Showman. Usually I played through a Twin Reverb, or a Marshall stack, or a Sound 40w combo with a 15" JBL DR-103. I still have the Sound amp.
    Most of the time now I play through a 1965 Blackface BandMaster with Eminence Legend speakers in the cabinet.
    A 1965 BandMaster is like half of a Dual Showman and some guys convert them to Dual Showman specs.
    The only thing that I've done to mine is tired component replaced and the speaker replacement.

Sooooo LOUD and clean....but I wanted a "rock" sound....as in overdrive/distortion.....and with the Showman, all I could get was CLEAN & LOUD! Back in the early 70's, there wasn't a lot of pedals like there is now.....I ended up with a Big Muff.....with the amp, I'm sure it was a great "pedal platform".....but the 2x15 JBL's did not sound good with the Muff....but it was what I had, so I rocked on!

    With the Chuck Berry thing, a lot of it was to get a little extra money out of promoters. I know quite a few cats that used to play with him and if the venues didn't have the DSRs, they would be fined. He did totally like the amps and always used them in Stl because they just kept a set at the venue he had his residency, but he would usually use whatever you had. SIR in NY had a pair in house just for when Chuck would tour the East Coast because every venue along the way rented them for him. That's the tip of the iceberg for Berry stories, though.

    100% agree on the amp sim thing. They are getting really good at replicating the sound, but they can never replace the *FEEL* of a tube amp. A kind of feeling that can't quite be put into words or understood without just experiencing it for yourself. Nothing beats the pure guitar feeling of plugging straight in and being in a good sounding room with the amp as loud as you want it.

      A modelling amp is like taking a pic of a beautiful scenery and showing everyone how identical it looks to the real scenery . A tube amp is like being there in the midst of the real scenery. People can argue that the pic looks identical to the real scenery. Only someone who is in the real scenery knows that the pic cannot capture the feel of the being in the midst of the real scenery....but someone who hasnt experienced the real thing will never know.

    The only thing that's "missing" from modelers IS the volume. That is up to the individual and their situation. Technology has blessed us with cranked tones at near-whisper volumes. Tones that are identical to the EQ of real amp/cabinet combo of your choice. However, nothing can substitute for volume. Especially in the "feel" department, and even more so when it applies to feedback.

    Two 71’ fender twins with the speakers running to marshall style half stack cabinets with four K120 JBL Speakers in each one, and specially built heads For the twins. Link with a Y chord. Super fender stack. Or use the showman head with a 4x12 cab (same JBL speakers). It’ll spread it out and reduce that ice pick sound and add a little honk

    You should really get an LP or something with humbuckers in it for some of these demos as well. Don't get me wrong, the strats always sound killer, but I'd love to hear how humbuckers get that amp (or don't) to break up more than a single coil can. Old Gibsons through old Fenders are a magical recipe as well.

    Welcome to your new home Matt! Hope it is all you hoped it would be and even more!
    Now, about your sound: yes, that is the cleanest Fender Amp/Cab combination I think I've ever heard. However: unless you have a couple of "hulks" for roadies to haul it around; you won't make it past your second gig without the services of an awesome chiropractor!!!
    I'm a Strat / Twin-Reverb guy myself; but the twin still isn't the lightest amp around either, but it beats the heck out of hauling around that Dual-Showman / Bassman 2x15 combo every other week! - Naw man, I'm just yanking your chain! - Although after watching as many of your vids as I have, my bet is you might keep the head and pair it up with a 4x12; but that 2x15 behemoth would be a monster behind your bass-player (and you won't have to worry about hauling it around anymore)!!! (Plus, on the positive side, you could always set up a deal with him to let you record through it whenever the situation comes up!)
    Ok; concisely, you're right, it's perhaps the best Fender AMP sound I've ever heard, but you gotta' admit, Stevie Ray, the "First Wife" SRV Strat, and that Vibroverb amp launched the sound that is still out there somewhere orbiting Saturn or somewhere!
    (You play amazing for a guy your age, and you've definitely got Stevie's chops, I just can't wait to see what you'll be pulling out of those fingers in another 3 - 5 years! - You keep it up, and you'll OWN the Texas Blues scene!)
    So... Here's to thick calluses and a set of "just right" broken-in strings! God bless you, Matt, and NEVER QUIT ROCKIN! - Just go for it!!!

    Always remember, Fender meant for the guitar to be played/recorded in a large, loud mix/band, rather than solo in more of a "Jazzy" Les Paul sort of setting. When you hear them in context, the "ice pickynes" becomes a benefit that cuts through the mix, in a good way.

      As you may know, SRV started out playing the Fender Vibroverb with a 15” speaker. He preferred a 15” speaker.
      It’s tone is close to this Dual Showman reverb. The main difference is that the DS Reverb has two 15” speakers in a closed back cab, which gives more bass tones.

    • @Johnrack
      @Johnrack 4 роки тому +2

      For awhile I had a Fender Tone Master with both 4x12 and 2x12 cabinets. It had a similar clean tone to your DS. I bought an external Fender Reverb unit for it. I sold it to Dave Grohl.
      As a young man in the early 1970’s I had a black face DS. It had great tone but was to large to carry, and too loud for bar gigs. A Fender Twin was more manageable.
