I have a regular Super Reverb from the 60s and can’t imagine needing something bigger and heavier and cleaner. I still use it as a pedal steel/every instrument amp but it is kind of wasted in a home as it really comes but alive in big rooms - like itll do that Marquee Moon sound takes a little bit of juice.

Also, I’ve spent more money getting that amp fixed up than any other, if mostly because I had a transformer eat shit and it is very expensive to experiment with speakers in those things.

In a basement, I can't imagine the Super Six would do anything that a Deluxe or Vibrolux wouldn't do in a much more pleasant manner. However, those are much more expensive than the Super Six that's been posted.

That's the other thing, I already own a '00s Fender Twin-Amp. A lateral move from a Fender to an Older Fender.

Also a potential future concern, due to the Celestion's poor reputation.

I'm pretty sure that's the one that wound up in our space (I had the 4x12 and 6x10 owners swapped in my head).

Bry Webb is the man

All the things. and maybe one more. I'm about to pull the trigger on 60 new in box Owens Corning 705 acoustic panels from someone local for about half their face value. And I've spent waaay too much in the past few months on cool shit from Japanese auction sites. Basically just help me not be excited about more shit. I do have a collecting problem which flares up occasionally and this is one of those times.

How do you all manage your gear binging habit? plz halp

I just tell other people what I'm doing. they either egg me on or talk me out of it - and if it's an egg on I rarely regret it

Behringer has cloned the LinnDrum.

Terrible company. But it looks cool as fuck.

I am very conflicted and will probably do a bad thing.

But please try to talk me out of it.

As far as studio stuff goes, acoustic treatment is by far the smartest money you can spend. Go get em.
