Best Fender Sound

1974 Fender Super Reverb Silverface amp. best cleans in the guitar world.

This is the model where MID controls are added to both channels, and there is a Push/Pull Master volume knob.

This amp is a4x10 combo and is a beast, Reverb is sweet and best You can hear on an amp.

There is no FX loop which is a downer, but still I get some of the best tones i have heard on this amp, I play it for hours and still can't get enough f the beautiful Fender vintage sound, there are a billion options when dealing your tone, and when experimenting with different pedals, this amp can take all of them. Better to be used with less digital stuff in mind, as it does not handle analog digital mixing well, i used to use it with a LINe 6 pod for effects and analog gains, and the quality was so-so, i switched to an all analogue circuit, or analog dry thru effects and there is no sweeter sound.

It is HEAVY though

An excerpt from Pearl Jam's Touring Tech, George Webb in 1995 for Guitar World:

"Amp-wise, Eddie is using a vintage 4x10 Fender Super Reverb, but he may switch to a '72 100 watt Hiwatt. Eddie definitely has a Who/Pete Townshend fascination, hence the Telecaster/Hiwatt combination."

This was Eddie's main amp from 1992 until the Pearl Jam Summer tour in 1995. it's a 70s Fender Super Reverb, Silverface, with a Master Volume control.

I believe this was used in the studio for Ed's guitar parts on Vs., Vitalogy, and Merkin Ball, before he got his Hiwatt dr504 Custom 50 in 1995, which he used almost exclusively up until about 2005-6. (I see mention of a Hiwatt dr103 head, but I don't see any photos/videos showing him using one. All show him using a dr504.)
