Upcoming Fender Stack Completion!!

[Quencho092]

With a Weber Ceramic California 15 inch speaker in the mail, i am coming close to completing my fender stack. Here's the details:

Bottom-former 2x12 open back cab for some Peavey. The wood is pretty resonant and light, and i had the baffle cut for a 15 inch speaker a while ago. Here is where the Weber California will sit.

Middle-my DRRI. I had the Handle taken off of the 15 inch cab so that the DRRI could sit on top without a problem.

Top-1963 Fender Blonde Bandmaster and it will be driving the 4 ohm 15 inch speaker on bottom.

I will most likely go to the DRRI first, then to the Bandmaster, daisy chained for a stereo rig. If i can grab some more cables, perhaps i could use my wah on the bandmaster only since the California is quite a full range speaker.

Has anybody ever done something like this? I think lew ran his twin on top of a 2x15 Dual Showman cab at one point.

no way i'll out volume you, but for what i play, im sure i'd out TONE YO ASS!!

It's just 1x12 and 1x15, but im going for a nice controlled clean/saturation out of the DRRI with definition and punch from the bandmaster. I might load the Bandmaster with 5881's or 6L6WGC's for earlier breakup and more of a tweedy/blonde sound.

He said "completion" not "competition".

Anywho, the stack sounds toneful.

oh my bad

but i think it should be a competition anyways

and i'm pretty sure i'll out tone your ass

4 eminence wizards + 2 swamp thangs + ts9 with 808 chip & asymmetrical clipping + EH pres + mother f-in hot rail = the rock & roll tone that the 70's wishes it had found out about. Also works for rockabilly, and if i flip to the neck position, it's blues all the way

only way i'll hand it over to you is if you load it with NOS tubes & get a blonde bassman 2x12 loaded with v30's. A 6120 would put the nail in the coffin

Re: Upcoming Fender Stack Completion!!

what i dig about my setup is the 6V6 distortion and the light breakup of the bandmaster as a result of the original paper bobbin transformer focusing certain frequencies.

I doubt you play jazz standards, ABB covers, ooold style blues, and latin rolled into one jam band improvisational package though...different strokes.
