BASSBREAKER
So I have this young brother in law, he's like 27? And I've been long term loaning him amps and guitars for a few years. Today we did a swap, he's taking care of my Twin Reverb now, and I got my bassbreaker back! 45 watts of tube terror into two twelves. Hopefully this guy will rule the school for my grouchy new wave band.

Re: BASSBREAKER
This is Fender's take on a Marshall JTM45 sort of deal, isn't it?
I'd be interested to know how you get on. When they first came out, I sort of didn't like the idea of this amp because Marshall already make something that sounds like a Marshall, and I really didn't like the aesthetics for some reason (looks a bit too 80s modern somehow).
It looks much, much better with a hole in the grill cloth.

Re: BASSBREAKER
My bandmate uses one of these and it sounds ace. Not sure if it's the Bassbreaker in general, or just his specific amp, but it feeds back in a really specific way which he hasn't been able to recreate whenever he's had to use a different rig. Enjoy!

Re: BASSBREAKER
They’ve definitely got that Marshall-ish flavour too them. Kinda like the way they look. I nearly brought the small head they did in them until I found the Marshall origin 20 head.
Still pissed my ex-bandmates for convincing me to get rid of my JTM45 and go back to the Dual Terror.

Re: BASSBREAKER
I can relate to that. My classic player strat has this magic sweet spot for feedback on the neck pickup that any other guitar I’ve owned/played doesn’t have. It desperately needs a setup and some TLC but worried that it might lose its mojo if it does.Freddy V-C wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2023 10:52 am it feeds back in a really specific way which he hasn't been able to recreate whenever he's had to use a different rig.

Re: BASSBREAKER
I still don’t know if it’s good for my band because the other guy GOT THE FLU so I guess we’re going to find out when we sound check for the show on Saturday. Living on the edge, Aerosmith style.
