But considering bang for the buck, Ted Weber's stuff is hard to beat. They are darn near indestructible, though. IMO the best "clean" 15" speaker out there is probably an Electro-Voice EVM or EV15L, but they are $$$ and hard to find. The 12 in my Deluxe Reverb is an alnico, though. I have Calis in three of my Fender amps - 10, 12 and 15" versions. The Cali is Weber's interpretation of a JBL D130F, and I love the way they sound.loud, crisp, and clean, no caffeine. I have a 15" California ceramic in my 100W Custom Vibrasonic, and it is about as clean as it gets. would I really get more out of a bandmaster combo? An amp tech told me I'd get more headroom out of the Bandmaster because of a beefier transformer and solid state rectifier, but that is what I have basiclly done to the Vibrolux. So I was thinking if I threw the chassis into a 1 15" combo it might work out nicely. I have a complete 1965 Bandmaster piggyback set up, but it is as involved a set up as the Showman (as you all are aware). I put in a solid state rectifier and switched the pre amp tube from an AX7 to an AT7. I've tried Weber Cali Alnico speakers, but now have 75 watt Eminance Ceramics in it to try to achieve more headroom. I don't want breakup!įirst, about the Vibrolux: 1974, I was hoping the silverface "beefed up" transformer would be to my advantage. But I want clearity and definition with the low end. I use and prefer the Showman when ever possible, but there are times when I need a smaller combo. I need a combo for gigs where space is limited and quick set up / breakdown is nessesary. Various non-surf bands that actually made money (1978-1990) Also a quality set of tubes will help clean things up. That would be way less expensive than getting a combo cabinet built! A pair of EVM's, Weber Calis, or JBL D110's should work wonders. With all that said, maybe a simple speaker change in your Vibrolux would solve your problem. ![]() ![]() I guess it depends if you want a combo or a piggyback. I think the single 15" combo cab with an open back would be a good choice for a nice, portable combo surf rig that would work fine in all but the larger venues.Ī tone ring setup requires a special ported closed back cabinet with a double baffle. Just make sure your speaker impedence is matched to the Bandmaster chassis. The Bandmaster will be plenty loud.actually the Showman in mine isn't all that much louder than the Bandmaster was at a given volume setting until you really crank it. To answer your question, yes, it should work out great. I replaced the BM chassis with a '67 Dual Showman to get a little more clean headroom and swapped the tired old speakers that were in it with a pair of Weber Californias. I have a similar setup, that started out as a '65 Bandmaster chassis in a Larry Rodgers Vibrolux clone cabinet (2-10's). ![]()
