Pricey, yes - but seems like there's a bunch of neat details and nice to see Fender doing something interesting the "tube amp space."
Sounds pretty tight. Harmonic trem is a thing of beauty and the tube count lends me to believe that that the trem and the reverb are all tube driven like the source material.

Probably a good place to confess I fucking hate guitar amp reverb. Always sounds like some shitty overpass to me. A short-to-medium slappy delay setting conveys space much more convincingly IMO.

I feel you. That is a classic setup.
I've posted about this before, but my first "melodic guitar" setup was a couple delays and overdrives into a fender amp with reverb. My first "noisy rock" guitar setup was a boost pedal into a JCM800.

30+ years later, it's exactly the same. Even when I'm using Helix, my presets fall right in line.

No matter how many times I try to change shit up, when it comes down to writing and playing live, I just go right back to one of those setup.
Maybe that says something about our perceived variety in tone

I have a big Epiphone cab from the 60s that has a 15 and 10 in it. I think it's a 4T cab meant for a 50 watt bass amp. Love to find that head.

Edit it's this cab and I want that head.
