My Shorty T and it's New Old Amp

[uburoibob]

I am in love with my guitar. I believe that I've expressed that quite a bit. Today, I got it a friend... A 1966 blackface Fender Princeton amp in exceptional original condition. So far, I've never heard a guitar that liked an amp and an amp that liked a guitar as much as this pair. I am just blown away (and I know better than to wax poetic on my honeymoon...)

hey bob-

is that the princeton that sound source had? i was in there the other day, but was in a rush, so i never checked it out.

i sure that those two pieces make a sweet combo.

if you'd like to get together and check out my atom, i'd be interested in playing your short t. pm me if you're interested.

Hey Kevin,

Yup, that's the one. I played it for a couple minutes a few days ago. After that, all my amps suddenly sounded shrill or weak or bassey or something. Went in last night and have it home right now.

THIS is the amp I have been looking for all my life.

I'd love to get together. I'll PM you...

Hi Herb,

The amp has a wonderfully warm sound. But still articulate highs and a very transparent/translucent midrange that really lets the wood of the guitar be heard.

Body Finish - Tint
Body Wood - Swamp Ash
Neck Wood - Hard Rock Maple
Neck Finish - Tinted
Nutwidth - 1 11/16 in
Frets - Heavy
Back Shape - Happy Medium

What are you playing?

Bob
