'71 Vibro Champ | New Bias, New Speaker

[davidkieltyka]

My first vintage Fender amp was a ‘65 Vibro Champ, bought at a local shop in 1993. Still have it. Last serviced ~12 years ago, sounds great.

Apropos of nothing, I would love to hear you talk about grounding schemes and the technical reasons for choosing one versus another. Maybe with a technical appendix for the ambitious viewer. But I know you give us these excellent videos for free, so thank you for sharing all this great knowledge.

That 335 sure is a beauty and sounds great.

Nice job, as all I0ve seen on your channel! Glad you liked the Jensen C8R, it's nice little speaker with a well balanced tone. Just give it a little break-in time, maybe 20/30 hours at decent playing volume, and it'll open up and sweeten a bit.
If you are interested in a bigger, fatter and tighter 8", i would highly recommend the new Falcon 8... it's louder and more efficient, with a stronger lower midrange... totally worth a try in this kind of small amps. With a clever close-micing technique, you can get some of the biggest tones ever!

I have a ‘71 Bronco which I believe is the same as this Vibro Champ.

Love your new guitar. It sounds very smooth with that tiny amp. I look forward to many videos with the 335 demonstrating your excellent work.

[Jam-mm]

I think this Jensen P8r sounds wonderful

[johndeschain]

Awesome stuff Lyle. Look forward to seeing you on Tone Talk

[SeekerGoOn]

Not bad for a little guy.
Slight understatement 😆

[BradsGuitarGarage]

That sounds like the duck's nuts.
Beauty, mate!

Currently doing a recap on my own amp I was curious for the CE can cap exactly what value did you use the 20 20 20 20 at 475? Or the 40 40 20 20. Appreciate it!

[ProducerBryan]

In your opinion, what did you change to make the overdriven sustain less "spitty". The driven distortion decay sounds so smooth now!

[shckltnebay]

Ragin Cajun is a great choice not sure if an 8" 4 ohm is available

[DrRussPhd]

Nice stuff . . . everything sounds better with a Strat.

[jimbeaux]

Ooh, that 335 sounds nice through it.

[ditchgator]

Very nice indeed 😎👍
Client will be pleased me thinks 😃

[MattJohnsonSC]

How did the whole "An AC30 is a Class A amp" talk get started in the first place? Was that in Vox's original marketing?

[matthewf]

I’m getting pretty dang jealous of that 335 there, Lyle. I did get my Custom Shop Olympic White 59 Strat and it’s a keeper.

[antonix_]

The Gibson sounded much better than the strat on this amp

[jamesincharlotte]

Any ribbed speaker is best for this amp.
