Brother, it’s not your guitar playing which is unbelievable, it is you. You inspire me to pick up my $100 guitar everyday and just keep trying. Your manner and lovely demeanour shine through any gain or reverb. Peace to you too 🙏🏼
Fender Strat into a Blackface Super Reverb is just the sweetest sound on earth. Bought an all original 1965 one year ago and good lord.. i dont regret it!
My favorite sound ever is a Tele and a Vox together. It is absolutely glorious. There's just such a "smoothness" or something to a Vox that that I don't feel like the Fender amps have but I still love the Fenders also.
quite the gem you found! Keep fixing the broken parts until you are totally happy with the sounds. It's got to be an investment. You and I never experienced the mid-60's , but you have a taste of what it was really like in that piece of history. Add a '59 Strat or an early sixties "anything" and you have 1000's of hours of delight under your fingers.
I will say as a guitarist trying to learn and find my own sound. Mathew Scott is one of the few modern day guitarists I really look up to and steal a ton of licks from, so keep up the good work!
"Going well" means that that bridge PU is salvageable to me... I hope so for you. Such an amazing tone even with ancient strings which I so respect you playing the demo with out of respect for the old girl and what souls have put hands and heart into her. Stunned.
I have a '67 Super Reverb with four JBL 10's bought it brand new in 1967 put the JBL's in the cabinet in 1970. Heavy as hell but it is the sweetest sound I have ever heard. No amp comes close to it.
You deserve million subs man. From a viewer standpoint, I'd love to see you play a bit more, I love your content but I wish I could see you play longer.
You never fail to put a smile on my face whenever I see a video of yours come out. You are not my favorite content creator but rather my favorite guitar player, period. Over stevie, over jimi, over any of em. You have a god given talent and a hell of a sound to you.
Nice to see the amp working so beautifully now. I would have loved to see your amp guy’s restoration process, like how many pots he had to replace, but I’m kind of a nerd about that stuff.

Sounded great! Love the Super Reverbs. I bought a 68 in 92 that still had the tags on it and was clean as a pin. Not even any smoke stains in the grill cloth. Wish I still had it!
Each time you tweaked the reverb from 5:08 on, my smile just got bigger and bigger.... what a wide full sounding tone and as for that reverb, man that Reverb, superb! Sweet spot hit at 5:23 and again 5:49! Just amazeballs!! Great vid (as always), and a seriously great sounding amp. Love it.
You know music is always been a big part of my life even before I really knew it was. And here lately I've been going through a lot of stuff including me and my wife and it has to do with some people with messed up thinking and actions and sometimes it's more than I can take. Thank God there's a wonderful outlet with videos like yours, thanks.
I know it's been a year but I really hope things are going good for you now Ron. I've learned from years of pain the best place to be is leaning on the Lord Jesus my brother. Cheers from Louisiana P[>
It's always amazing what people have sitting out in their barn. Appears that barn dust must be a decent preservative for both amps and forgotten cool cars. I'm surprised all the tubes and capacitors survived the decades. Your Super sounds great.
super sweet and really love the tone of that firebird . makes me want one. I had the good fortune of seeing Freddie King live in the mid 70's and it was the first time I had seen or heard a Super Reverb. He was the opening act for ZZ Top.Anyway he was amazing.
This one sounds a lot more raspy and bold - it’s got a lot of tonal character on top of the notes like it’s seasoned. It’s definitely amazing - you can’t replicate it in a new build - one of a kind tone. Killer find and glad you got it running!
Found an original 1974 Silverface Super Reverb with Master Volume in a pawnshop with original Fender Alnico speakers (like yours) and the original RCA tubes including the hard to find 7025's. Replaced reverb pan and replaced needed capacitors and resoldered necessary points. A 1978 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe with the mini-humbuckers gives an incredible clean tone with this amp; the Les Paul with the mini-humbuckers I believe is underrated. This amp brings my Gibson to life! My friends, Gibson and Fender can work well together. 😁🎸
The super reverb is my favourite all time amp. I owned and used Silver face version for about 10 years. It got a bit heavy to lug and I traded for 68 Deluxe reverb. Both great amps
For recording purposes the Deluxe is probably even better- but there's no substitution for 50 watts of all tube Fender power into those JBL 4x10's!!! The Super Reverb is basically a 50w Marshall half stack stuffed into a combo package! I LOVE mine!! (I've got a Vibrolux too for when more reasonable volume levels are called for...)
To my ear, that is honestly the sweetest sounding amp I have EVER heard, bar none, bar down!!!! Even better the the Bassman, which has always been a favorite.
I had quite a few mid-60s Fender amps ... bought when they were new or only slightly used. I'm a big fan of that era of Fender amps. I didn't care much for the old tweed amps. I needed a lot of punch for the big clubs I was playing. I wound up using a Twin Reverb for my workhorse Fender. I had a 130 watt Orange driving Altec speakers. Couldn't go through the PA, but that rig really cut through the big hall and 1,000 or more people.
That’s an amazing sounding amp!! Playing your ‘59 Strat through it is that quintessential sound of the sixties. Very Hendrix sounding - glorious!! As usual your program lifts my spirits thanks for sharing. Love and Peace ☮️
My impression is that, put aside the mentioned rust this is functionally a NOS golden era Sixties amp! It doesn't seem all hacked and played out. Hope it serves you well & thanks for promoting interest and enthusiasm in finding good pieces like this.
Beautiful example of this amp! I have inherited my uncle's, from production run #7 as per the sticker inside the cab. it's such a phenomenal amplifier. Funny story: he knows I've played guitar since I was 10, and after 18 years of playing he brings me into the basement because "your aunt is making me get rid of a bunch of stuff. You can have my old accordion speaker if you want it, but I don't know if it'll work for a guitar". He goes into a corner and wheels out a huge box shrouded in a fitted tolex cover. I see a little silver Fender logo glisten in the corner. I look closer and under Fender it says Super Reverb. I pull off the cover, and underneath is an absolutely pristine, mint condition Super Reverb. He's got a bag in the back with a full set of NOS RCA replacement tubes, the original footswitch is still connected... and if I hadn't taken it: "If you don't take it I'm either dropping it off for the church or bringing it to Goodwill, I don't know if you want something so big and heavy". I was like "I can manage it, Uncle, thank you!". And now I am a happy guy.
Following up after finishing the video - My thoughts on your tone? Phenomenal. I switched out to a 3-prong cord and did a thorough cleaning, or what little was necessary at least, and can't speak highly enough of it. The tremolo is also SOOOO good on this amp.
Friend of mine bought this amp from Matthew. He didn’t mention the footswitch in the Reverb ad and then it turned out he “sold it to pay for shipping”. The amp arrived with issues, all four speakers needed reconing, and the chassis had to be sent to Uncle Doug for repair because the tech Matthew had work on it did a hack job and the tremolo didn’t work. He got it back from Uncle Doug and it sounds amazing now.
Hold off on reconing that speaker until you 1) check that it's not the dust cap that's rattling 2) if not item 1, remove the dust cap and turn the speaker upside down and shake it to see if you can get what's rattling to fall out- often it's just piece of debris. Don't know about those particular speakers, but for Celestions the tone is in the cone and reconing kills them. Easiest way to remove the dust cap is to get an 90 degree angled scribe and repeatedly heat it, working it around to soften the glue and pry the cap away. To reglue the cap, Weldwood contact cement is nearly identical to the glue they used. It also can be a piece of debris inside the cavity where the spider is and you can use the same method to pry up just a 2 inch section, use something to wedge it open, and see if you can shake the debris out, then reglue.
I have been waiting for this video, the super reverb is my all time favorite amplifier. Twins seem to stay in the shop more than on stage with me, but none of them sound like that...phenom! Great find Matthew.
@Matthew Scott that reverb sounds amazing! What a deep, lush tone. Feel like I need to replace my Deluxe now, lol. Keep that one in the videos. I would love to hear your Mary Kaye and that Special through it!
Sounds great! I had one of the first silver face Supers from the early 70's...I don't remember it sounding as warm as yours. It's amazing the caps didn't dry out and you were able to play through it right off.

Yea I’m thinking about getting one of these instead of an apartment
You can find one for a great price if you look for it, all the time.
Actually original super reverb dont cost a whole lot.
@@noahbergman7777 LOL
@@shckltnebay Seriously. There often less than the price of a new one. And that's in good condition
Hell yea, apartments back on the list!

I've got a 64 all original...... don't have the talent to deserve such an amp.......but I'm working on it!

That amp sounds amazing! It’s your skills that really make it. I really enjoy hearing you play.
Oh man. When you flicked to THE fender position and played the hammer-ons at around 1.53... it was over. So sweet, chimey but not harsh. Loved it.
Sounds mellower and warmer and dynamic than some other amps. Not harsh or overly brittle at all.
That amp is sweet. Brought both of those guitars to life, big time.
The firebird turned out so well. The amp is amazing, especially with a humbucker pumping through it.
Thanks much, Matt. I appreciate your recent videos of fixups and back-from-the-almost-deads!
Omg that's the best reverb tone I ever heard I was wanting to buy a 74 super reverb I now know I have to do it
Get ya at least a 72 non master volume
Do it! If you can. We only get one trip around 👍🏻
Congratulations on 100k, Matthew. Well deserved! Love the content
Everything has a very good tone,the amp, guitar and reverb.
It's always amazing what people have sitting out in their barn. Appears that barn dust must be a decent preservative for both amps and forgotten cool cars.
I'm surprised all the tubes and capacitors survived the decades. Your Super sounds great.

God that sound is so amazing, such a wonderful era in music, maybe it's just me but there just so much emotion and feeling in those tones
Thanks for having something worth watching
@ about 5:10... you were channeling Robin Trower. Great sounding amp, and as always... great playing.
Matt that amp sounds very alive and almost heavenly. But to be honest with you everything that you play sounds fantastic.
Thanks very much Tony.
Sweet!!!!! Real, raw live music, much appreciation, keep it going!!!!!
your video quality and playing is just getting better and better, having a place you can play loud whenever is doin you amazingly
I like the way the Firebird fits between the couch arm & cushion! And it sounds so sweet. Johnny Wintery.🎶
Great video, great playing, great sound, thanks a lot from Poland, Chris
To my ear, that is honestly the sweetest sounding amp I have EVER heard, bar none, bar down!!!! Even better the the Bassman, which has always been a favorite.
Can't wait to see the paul. That amp and neck pickup are from heaven.

From around 7:30, that portion with the wahwah pedal. I'd buy a record with just Matthew noodling on that sound. Absolutely sublime.
Love your channel...love the vintage stuff,,,im a sucker for Fender guitars and Amps ,,just takes me back to when i was a kid,,Thanks for all you do
That vintage amp + strat together with your playing's incredible, you found the gold!
So sweet. Records so gently
Those SRV tones! I had a 67 Bassman with a (2) 12" cab. I cried when I had to sell it.
Fender amps seem to be the master of the warmer tones. And they still can give you that growl that is absolutely required on stage.
Best reverb I've ever heard. Unbelievable
That’s an amazing sounding amp!! Playing your ‘59 Strat through it is that quintessential sound of the sixties. Very Hendrix sounding - glorious!! As usual your program lifts my spirits thanks for sharing. Love and Peace ☮️
Can't beat a fender clean tone. And that amp has tons of it.
Enjoy listening to you play the bird!

That reverb is up on the list of most amazing things I have ever heard.
wow that reverb just wow
CTS alnicos are the ultimate! I have 2 1967s in my 59 Bassman. (Other 2 are 65 Jensen ceramics in case anyone is curious!).
Shew!!! That bird is on FIRE! It always blows me away. Great stuff Matt

Glorious fender tones Matt. That is a priceless amp to most vintage fender tone hounds
love the reverb tones.. really early Fleetwood mac sound they loved bid Fenders.
And bam.... you crack the 100k by 2k already. You definatly deserve, congratulations
With that Guitar and amp combo Your tone could open the gates of Heaven .👍👍
I swear SRV looks down and smiles every time you pick that ‘59 strat up and plug it in.....you never disappoint Matthew....✌🏼
Blackface Supers are the best amps ever made imo. Its a dream to own one someday. Love the content keep it coming!
Hell yeah man! I see those 100k subscribers, been here since 10k.
Congrats on 100k man! Your videos are always some of my favorites
Thanks for another great video. I cannot believe that amp still sounds great after spending so much time in a barn.
congrats on 100k subs Matthew..well done. great to see your channel grow over the years..
Nice amp. Nice guitars and great player. = ear candy. Keep the tone alive. Great dedication thank you for doing what you do.

Sweet sounding amp. Weber! Weber is great for recones. The guy who does em there is super nice to work with and does an excellent job
Wow that is lush! The reverb is beautifully rich and creamy.

I'm building a '59 tweed right now. I love those old-school circuits.
Like a spaceship... It take the room up a notch... :)
