Fender 75 amp

Post by Bob Metzger »

Has any PSG player had the opportunity to play a Fender 75? I have a chance to buy one and I'm wondering if it will work out or not with steel guitar. As I also play guitar, I'm partial to Fenders!

I've just started steel & already own a Fender 75. It's being repaired at the moment so I haven't had a chance to try it with the steel but I'm looking forward to seeing how it sounds.

Another thought, as the 75 has a 15" speaker it can be hard to control the sound of the bottom 2 strings on a regular 6 string, especially if you use a bassy guitar or thick strings. One bonus of the amp though is that it's switchable between 75 and 25 watts - handy if you want an overdriven sound at lower volumes.
