| Well, I would try to find a blackface fender head or combo- a twin is very high volume... I would most likely get a super reverb, vibroverb, deluxe, bandmaster, etc.... on of the lower wattage ones. Even one of the old style Champs will get you the Fendery tones you want... actually, I would probably go that route. You can get old Champs for for around $200-400, and they have every bit of the tone of their bigger counterparts (Derek and the Dominoes anyone?).
Then, I would pick up an old issue JCM 800 head, and call up PRS and see if he still does the gain mod.
As far as cabs go, I would second the suggestion to check out the Dr. Z's.... the heads are pretty sweet too. That being said, my favorite cabinets are the old Musicman 212 RH's, with bass reflex port. |
