This is one of my fav rundown, appreciate the throwback. Love your videos and the channel!!

Loving these RR highlights. Great to rewatch clips or discover ones I haven't seen altogether. Keep em comin!

Dave: The secret is you should never turn Tweeds up past 3. They fall apart when you turn em up. Joe Bonamassa: Hold my Diet Coke.

this was always one of my favorite rundowns thanks john

Polishing a turd is my favorite expression John uses 😂 , golden nugget advice on this episode for sure, love you guys, thx so much for your work 🙏

The dude that told him to not to go over 3 is watching this and laughing his ass off.

Love the short clips! Makes it a lot easier to send these tips to friends.

Remember that most of the tweeds used Linear pots for the volume, and they actually were about a 30% taper, unlike the modern Linear pots which are 50%. So ‘3’ on those amps is probably around 5-6 on the modern log pots.

Speaking of Freddie King, one of his best live outdoor shows is when he is playing right before the Georgia Peach Bowl when he preforms “ Have you every loved a woman,” check it out on KZfaq.

Would have been nice to hear them!

I like my Dumble modified mid 60’s Fender Deluxe too!! 👍😀🤙

You can dial down the voltage tweaking the tube rectifier selection too if you know what you're doing. Which is a definitely easier than carrying around an autotransformer.

I really like hearing about amps and some of the mods that guys have done over the years. His idea that it's all in the hands is spot on. Guys that own a million guitars like Steve Howe, Keith and Ronnie, Slash, and a host of others, always sound like themselves regardless of which of their guitars they use. Heck, Clapton's sold and given away countless guitars and he sounds the same with whatever he's playing. Guitars, strings, amps, and effects are just tools. In the end, they're all just means to an end. A great player with a great song, it's gonna happen! Great video!

Love to hear those

"Power now is like 127, it gets crazy" LOL. All of Europe/Asia/Australasia over here rocking 240V, just vibing.

You have to try out a Dumble thru some great sealed cabinets with 4 JBL D120F Speakers. I did this back in the 1980s in Santa Cruz CA at my friends music studio. The first thing I noticed was the Attack. When you just plucked a note, the amp responded so quickly and crisp. I was playing a 1970 Gibson SG. Alex Howard Dumble lived in Santa Cruz for many years... Is he still there?

Well Hell you got my Attention now let's hear thoze Amps !!!!!!

He was right about Mike Campbell. The tone is in his hands.

Dave are you sure? I have some old stock Amperex 12 AX7's & NOS 1954 Bendex 6V6's made in red fang factory in New Jersey. Need any EF-86's ?

Best advice at 5:50 ✌🏻

Here's perhaps a silly question: when he says he turns the amp to three, does he mean the digits on the amp or do they actually mean "three o'clock" (like turn the pot to the right hand side if you're standing in front of it)? Thanks for any help!

Don't turn it up past 3, just turn the whole amp up(side down)!! Yep, that's the secret !!!

DIME this piyag!

I have a 58 tweed super amp .. he'd not lying about 3

The champ is class A you don’t really adjust volume as much as you’re adjusting the head room most class A’s have their own sweet spot… both the “Eric Clapton” album and the Derek and the dominos album were recorded with a champ… Clapton’s tone is incredible both dynamic and sparkly at the same time.

So what is the first amp? The 2nd is a Tremolus.

Harvest moons are the only time I can record these amps and they sound good lmfao

Those of us who own a 5e3 know the volume drops when it’s dimed

My bassman sounds great at 6 with a metal zone.

I really don’t get it. But it doesn’t go to 11?

👌

So this guy has got a ton of interesting amps, and all he does is speak about them? Let's hear those little beasts!

Second .. Dave is the Boss!!!!

Voltage used to be 110, mine right now is 123...

It received some " Hyper Tech" from the tone chaperone.

I was gonna say "if only they had showed some clips of them" then I remembered you just have to listen to the albums he's produced

Was that 3 out of 10, or 3 o'clock?

It's a creamback he uses...and he digs AY7's for the pre, and /*^#* in V5..............

Nah, the real secret is don't go past 3.6

Put your Boots on....it's gettin deep...........................never trust Sum Gye he's an infamous prankster .....

I've been lucky enough to have owned two 1959 4 input Tweed Deluxes, at separate times during my career. And I can say that hands down really against all the other amps that I've owned and some have been boutique amps but the list is too long to go through here. But those Fender Tweeds, specifically for me the Deluxe 5e3 are just unbeatable. In fact in one of them I put a Celestian Blue alnico speaker in it and I can say that that was the finest sounding blues rock amp I've ever owned and like I said I've owned a ton of them over the years. So yeah the trick really is not to get much past four or five on the volume otherwise it's just flab city!! Leo certainly knew what he was doing and I actually had a Lupe Lopez assembled Deluxe! Her name was faded but there on the masking tape inside the chassis! She was THE gal when it came to building those old tweeds!

Wait, is this a rerun? C'mon PG, what gives???

“Never turn a tweed past three” “so I now I put on 3 or 4” wait isn’t 4 past 3? (Just your friendly neighborhood fact checker)

I find these interesting, but of no practical value. There are only so many ( or so few ) of these old amps to go around. And less guitarist whom can afford them.

Ok, so he doesn't really understand amps.Just a player's view.And no, a higher power speaker does not fix the tweed circuit.It just makes the bottom end fart sound less prominent.

the interviewer said fart and tird. he is grooming people for their trips to walmart
