DetroitBlues Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Incoming new amp cabinet... I've struggled with lugging around my Traynor YGM-4 amp, only because it's cumbersome and keeps getting tore up with every trip. Just paid for a Mather Cabinet for it in a 1x12 combo to appear like a Brownface Era Fender combo. I'm really excited to get it looking like a classic amp. It's incoming in seven to eight LONG weeks... But it's paid for and incoming eventually...
peterbright Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Good luck with the new cab. The time will fly by...not!
TalismanRich Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Get a good cover for the amp to take some of the wear off.... D2F Covers Tuki Covers Studio Slips
Guest HRB853370 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 That's a song my new band covers... Do you put some dirt on your axe for that one?
DetroitBlues Posted March 27, 2014 Author Posted March 27, 2014 Do you put some dirt on your axe for that one? Every bit my Jet City dishes out....
CJTopes Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 How are you liking the Jet City? I was ready to pull the trigger on the 2112RC but bailed at the 11th hour because of a price issue. Cant Believe I walked out of a music store with a pocket full of cash!!!

Cant Believe I walked out of a music store with a pocket full of cash!!! Love mine and haven't looked back.. . If you're into using pedals for your dirt, there is a special JCA20H that has an effects loop and made to have much cleaner headroom at $400. I was giving Mike Soldano's contact info to have my amp modified, to an actual clean channel and vintage tone lead channel.... At the moment, I'm not going to since I just spent a big wad of cash on a cabinet for the Traynor. I suggest buying it used and then spending the extra dough on the mod's... Can be found for $150 to $250 as a head or combo.
CJTopes Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I'm very temped to pick one up. But I've decided to try the Rivera Pubster 25W head and picking up a 1x12 bottom. ( already have a 2x12) But a JC2112RC would be a great grab and go for the open Jamms I host......... Maybe I should get both!!!

Kuz Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 DB, closed back 1x12 & ported, I assume for your more higher gain application now? What speaker are you going to use?
CJTopes Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 For the price, why not? Fraction of a Riveria. I prefer the build of the Rivera. I didnt even know about the Pubster head until I passed on the Jet City.... (And made in the USA gets a +1)
DetroitBlues Posted March 28, 2014 Author Posted March 28, 2014 DB, closed back 1x12 & ported, I assume for your more higher gain application now? What speaker are you going to use?I'm keeping it as is. I like its natural tone. That's not going to be used with a rock band. I like it for playing blues and classic rock at lower volumes. Speaker is an Emmence Wizard, The new cab is ported, basically looks like a Deluxe a Reverb, but it a classic Brownface Era...

DetroitBlues Posted June 3, 2014 Author Posted June 3, 2014 My new cabinet came in... Looks great and I think the amp sounds even better...
tsp17 Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 Very well done DB! (And btw- that Joyo American pedal rocks. its on my board now and gets a ton of use)
