A 1990s build of the 4x10” Fender Hot Rod Deville. The big-brother in the Hot Rod series produces 60 watts of modern Fender tone through a mini-half stack.

With it's fantastic sounding clean channel the HR Deville is known as a great pedal platform & is a standard for backlines all over the world.

The Fender Hot Rod series is also known for some not so strong qualities. A poor choice in filter capacitors and a generally hated overdrive channel.

Luckily the first issue is fixed by the T&T component upgrades. In this case all the power filter capacitors have been replaced with F&Ts, as well as other key signal path capacitors and resistors upgraded to Orange Drops, Jupiter & Vishay.

To fix the second issue we've installed the Bill M/Frommel mods giving the amp a beautiful sounding overdrive. We also went a bit further and added switchable diode clipping on channel 2 via a push-pull pot on the volume control. We've also installed a push-pull pot for the channel 1 volume which, when pulled up, switches in the master volume to channel 1.

Accessories include a Fender foot switch.

The 2x12 Deville comes with it's original Eminence speakers, however, we do have a pair of Celestion Silver Series V30 speakers, which we think would be a fantastic upgrade.

Rare, 100 watt Elgen amplifier from 1973, with Partridge transformers, original mustard & tropical fish capacitors & hand-wired throughout.

Like Marshalls, the early Elgen amps were based off of the 6G6 Bassman Circuit. However this is one of their later builds when they had settled on a more consistent design with the Lead (guitar) & Bass 100 watt amps.

It’s powered by three 12AX7 for the preamp & phase inverter & four EL34 in the power section & the insides of the amp is all original, complete with 1973 dated Partridge transformers, mustard and tropical fish capacitors & hand wired throughout.

Whilst this one is labled as a Bass amplifier, from comparing the schematics with the internals, we know that elements of both designs have been included. Conveniently, as this amp has both Bass & Treble EQ in the preamp & Top Boost & Presence controls in the feedback circuit, it works just as well for Guitar as it does for Bass.

The amp is available as just the head unit, it can converted to a combo, or can come with a matching T&T cabinet to your specification.

LTD edition 2018 Blues Junior III, in a lovely Burgendy Red & complete with Cannabis Rex speaker. Updated by T&T to the latest BJ-IV spec, with a few extras thrown in.

We’ve carried out our usual upgrades, replacing the stock filter capacitors with high quality F&T’s, and signal path capacitors with Orange Drop and Panasonic film caps.

Stock parts which are know to cause issues have been replaced & voicing wise we’ve kept to the latest Blues Junior IV spec, apart from increasing the reservoir capacitor to 100uF for a firmer bass response.

Finally, we modified the Bias circuit so you can switch between original ‘fixed’ and latest ‘cathode’ bias, allowing a choice between higher headroom or more compression/earlier breakup.

All work is covered by T&T’s 3-month guarentees.

From the company who created the Fuzz-Face and who were behind Sound City amps, we bring you this crazy 150 watt beast.

Yep, it’s from the folks at CBS-Arbiter (previously Arbiter, then Dallas-Arbiter), and we are assuming it’s an early 70’s model from the ‘louder is better’ era, possibly after Dave Reeves left to start Hiwatt.

The design of the amp is pretty unusual for the time. It uses 6 EL34s to produce an awe-inspiring 150 watts of power, but the only 12AX7 is for the phase inverter. The preamp is a solid state FET preamp with active tone controls which were also a feature of the Sound City MK IV amps.

What’s cool about this amp is that it has a 4-band EQ with useful ‘low middle’ and ‘high middle’ controls.

The transformers are typically massive for the time, but the lack of 12AX7 preamp tubes means the overall size of the head is nice and compact for it’s output. You could almost say it was an early ‘lunch-box’ head.

Rare 1960’s Carlsbro CS40 amplifier with stunning plexiglass control panel, heavyweight iron and all the mustardy trimmings.

60 watts of glorious, harmonically rich, chimey & crunchy British vintage power!

You can read more about Carlsbro amps here, but the specs for this beauty are:

• 60 watts of power from 2x EL34s, in a fixed bias, class AB push-pull arrangment.

• Dual input Treble and Bass channels, with independent two band EQ, and a master ‘Top Cut’ control.

• Two 12AX7 in the preamp & a single 12AX7 in the phase-invertor

If I had to describe the sound, I would put it in between a Marshall & a Hiwatt. It’s got a lovely chime to it, but can be push into a crystal clear crunch/bark when the channels are jumpered together.

It’s a real late 60’s early 70’s rock sound & perfectly conjures up the raw tones of AC/DC.
