Ps. If you have happened to have found a rather large box/coming anywhere north of Birmingham since we last spoke then I'm still interested

Yeah, but calling tweed style is like calling a Maclaren F1 car a roadster.

I laughed so hard a little bit of wee came out.

I cant speak for new amps but a 60's blackface bassman will do what you're asking at volume.

Princeton if it's mainly for recording.

Cornell sounded like what you're describing when I tried one. Romany IIRC.

I'm now convincing myself that I need a 2nd amp again (not counting the Fishman Loudbox Mini), and that the credit cards can wait a bit longer. The Rectoverb is superb with my pedals, but I just miss plugging straight into the front of the DRRI.

OK OK - let's not mix our Metaphors here - a Tweed sound is NOT same as a Blackface...

An interesting discussion precisely on this from Victoria Amps' Mark Baier in this podcast here:
