1) 1955 Fender Bassman (4x10")
2) 1960 Gibson Maestro GA-45 (4x8")
3) 1959 Premier Twin-8 (2x8"
4) 1950's Pacemaker (rare!) (1x12")

So great to spend time with you, teach with you and play through those killer amps Adam. Let's do it again soon.
Yes indeed! You sounded great through all that hardware, but as we know, it ain't the amps, it's the player--and the mic, of course. :)
My two favourite people
My two favourite Harp players
My two favourite harp teachers

Think I like the Premier
This makes me lough out load with joy
Adam - you and Ronnie make some good vids as a team. 🤘🏽
Adam, I really like that killer ‘push’.., at the end of the riff you played, while plugged into the Maestro . Very cool
Wow! All of those amps have their own "feel"!
I'm enjoying my beginning trek of blues harp with my old Fender Musicmaster Bass tube amp and a Shure stick mic for now. Thanks for sharing this comparison, gents! God, I love the blues harp!
Cheers,

I want Ronnie's tone. Its just dripping with William Clarke.
Amazing. Nice tones. For some reason when Ronnies mic hit the bassman hard it was magic.
These guys could play through a sewer pipe and it would sound great
Some Rod Piazza vibes. Love those tones
Just, bloody, WOW!!!👊
All sweet sounding amps and great players as well! I would have loved a Stage 5 in the mix!
You sure play pretty good Mr. Adam
I bet they're way too loud, but man the tone!
Love it !!
Great sounds!
Adam I suggest you try the Fender Harvard Reverb Solid State 20Watt Amp with the Shure PE5H Mic! It's a really good combination!
Ahhhhhh I want to be in this room!
Love the chrom sound😊
So far the Premier wins.
Feel the Premier would cut through better in a band context…..but the bass man sounds awesome
Original speakers in the Premier?
Yes. The thing is essentially brand new. Like in a time warp. Pristine.
Yes.
I dont know i like that bassman
If we had a chance to really crank it up in a large space, it's pretty awesome.
thank you for this video. It's great comparision and tasty licks :) Friendly greetings for you Adam and Ronnie!
Another crossover video with two legends. Hope y'all shot some more of these, because we want to see more!
I do love the sound of that Premier amp my second fav out of these would be the Gibson. it's got a good punch to it. Thanks guys !!
You crazy boyz with toyz 🤗
Rare moments that I loved chromatic!
Boys and their toys! 😂
Thanks for sharing!! 🎉❤🎉
Hey what are the details on Ronnie's Mic?
Great amps all, I prefer the Premier best.
Love your videos. On that hunt for an amp now lol.
Far out Daddio! Your the man Adam!
🎯
Amazing guys
Stupid as it may… knowing what harmo you played would help
Me ;)
Adam you said these were too loud for you and not your first choice for gigs. So what is your first choice then?
When I'm playing in duo or trio settings, I generally use one of two setups: an early 60's Kay 703 paired with either a 1952 Masco MU-5 or a 1958 Premier Twin-8. I just don't need much more power than that. Occasionally I'll swap in a Harpgear HG2, which is a very loud 5 watt amp. Very occasionally, on large outdoor stages, I need more power. In that case, I'll use the pair of Premier Twin-8s, or I'll use one Premier paired with the Pacemaker. In duo/trio work, I never have need for the Bassman or Maestro. Those are just too loud. Guys in bands need amps that big because they're going up against guitar, bass, and a full drumset.
All amps together would sound interesting :)
You are indeed a demon! My kind of harp player. Once, many years ago, I played a big gig--opening for Bo Diddley--at the Channel, a Boston club, and I blew through a pair of 4x10" Fender SuperReverbs. Just way too much stage volume, but my god was it fun.
@@gussowsclassicbluesharmoni2726 I remember back in 1990 I had 2 little solid state Gorilla amps and a stereo delay pedal, which I went street busking with, powered by a 12v 'gel cell' battery and a 12VDC to 240VDC inverter (I'm in Australia) that I made from an electronics kit. Having the 2 amps about 10 feet apart was the sweet spot for the stereo sound. Two amps sounded like 4. I wish I had kept that cheapie delay pedal now. Fun times! Best wishes from the west coast of the island of Australia :)
What in the actual hell! You guys sound amazing.
They're all very good amps I like them all especially the sunny junior four ten. But what do you guys think about the harp train 10
