Im always suprised at how many people like the blues deluxe (and can't believe they reissued it- but yes sales #s disagree with me). The ONLY benefit is the price. Now that I have a 59 princeton- the blues deluxe is a coffee table..... Those amps sound terrible unless CRANKED to 11.... My singer had a hotrod too and I would NEVER buy one of those. I bought my Blues Deluxe in 1996 for a cheap live thrasher tube amp- for that its great! But if you like tone.....ugh. And ICE PICK treble never did much for me! Sadly, for the money, there aren't many better options.......thumbsup
