HBOD > 1967 fender Pro Reverb....

Postby murkat » Wed Feb 20, 2008 8:24 pm

Had a guitar show in the area few weekends ago, a clean, stock 67' Pro reverd followed me home. I am a "Marshall kinda guy". I told the amp this, regardless, it followed me home. Now its having an affair with myStrat, go figure. Now my Honey Bee joins in, making it a three sum.
I already love the Bee with my other amps, and brings its beautiful buzzness to the later mentioned. You really get the dynamics control and attack with the combo. I just wish the bee had a little more hair, gain for the two. stacking is 'okay' persay.... but,.... if there was a bastard son of the honeybee, oh my.... it be perfect... I end my rant.

Well, I try'd the drd. guitar> drd> HB> pro reverb. I did not care for the results it yeilded. the DRD is a great distortion, but not what I was looking for, wanted to hear. the HB did not care for the drd in front of it either... really weird. DRD on its own did yeild a nice crunchy distortion, almost a fuzz type tone, yet again, not what I was yearning.

cool, yeah be sure and back the disotrtion and level off a bit when stacking or they get too saturated....

EGDM is brighter and sharper and pushes the HB really well....

you know you may just want to drive a booster into the BEE, the RRB is excellent as it adds some upper harmonic woogie that the HB hdoes welll with....

Well, okay.... but here's the thing, I can drive/ push the HB with the EGDM with no problem. But if I push the HB with the DRD it is a different story, the signal gets squished at times, like a bad compressor gone nuts and it is random, esp if I use a neck pup. I am starting to think that the DRD maybe at fault... being that it maybe that something is going amuck inside the unit. It is not consistant in tone values. It is old (#003). and very well used......
