Fender 6g9b tremolux gut shots and updates

Post by StrummersOfThunder »

Just thought Id share a couple of things.
1. Gut shots (amp and mine)
3. Speaker upgrade (thanks Grant) jensen blackbird 100w and the 12' baffle BG made to replace the 2x10
2. Impressive shipping speed from mouser for a new tranny

Thats a nice, clean amp inside.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

OT has arrived.
Should I expect to 'notice' any change in performance now that the speaker will be matched 8ohm for 8ohm tap ?

Side by side comparison a little more volume maybe, in the time it takes you to change it over I expect you'll have a hard time noticing much difference.

I need 3 gallons before I get behind the stapler, its vicious once the compressor is turned on.
