    Re: blackface

    OH, so in terms of headspace.
    can i have my amp at a volume with a nice overdrive, and just roll my volume on my guitar back for a clean, then when i want the overdriven boost, i just roll my vol. up?. is that the general idea.
    i've got a few in mind, the blackface reissues, the ones u mentioned. other one is i try to find an original fender (may take ages), the bassman.

        The BF Fenders are not known for distortion but they will get a nice overdrive tone if you get the right one, and you have the right idea for cranking the amp then using your guitar volume to control the tone.

        As for the "original Bassman" are you talking about a BF Bassman, Blond, Tweed?
