    I have been playing over 45 years and seen some of the biggest names in guitar players in person up close. Mr. R.J. Ronquillo is one of the GREATEST Players out there today and does not get enough credit in the big time. He is a Super player and I look forward to his demo videos. Can't say enough good about his guitar prowess.

      This is what I was hoping Fender would do with their Tonemaster line but instead they just rehashed the Deluxe and Twin, tweeked the reverb and switched to Celestions. We want the Tweed twin and Tweed Bassman with all that processing power used for the best overdriven sounds possible, enough with the convolution reverb, dammitt. Rant over, this Aviator Cub might have caught Fender with their guard down, man, I hope these sound as good in person, thx!

    • @LeviBulger
      @LeviBulger 3 года назад +3

      I agree it has a nicer clean than the princeton, but after trying one out today, I can't honestly say it came close to touching the clean on my DRRI. It's pretty compressed after a certain point on the volume, where as the deluxe stays pretty open even when breaking up a bit. But honestly, for a non tube amp it was pretty good.

    • @bb_lz9790
      @bb_lz9790 3 года назад +1

      I had the same thought. I guess the first question is, can one plug into more than one input using an ABY switch? There might be some switching going on with the input jacks that would prevent that.

    • @bb_lz9790
      @bb_lz9790 3 года назад +2

      To answer my own question, I just took a look at the manual online. For inputs it tells us "The Tweed, Blonde, and Black inputs have independent 2 meg preamps that bring your pickups to life with extra-high impedance to preserve the delicate overtones of all mag-netic pickups. Multiple instruments may be connected without cross-loading, or a single instrument can be switched using an external input switcher. Try each one and hear how the sound of iconic amps evolved during the era when the electric guitar first became a hit instrument."
      So, that means that one can use an ABY or ABCY (if such a thing exists) to switch between inputs or use them simultaneously.
