RE: Tele Tuesday and a 1972ish Ampeg VT-40
Hi! Thanks.
Ampegs are a mixed bag. I have had 4 or 5 of them. The VT series like this one are LOUD and heavy! The early ones from the 50's and 60's are pretty cool but don't always rock out if that's what you want. Everett Hull the owner of the company was a jazz guy and didn't like Rock. If you can find a Reverbrocket those are really cool. They are Ampeg's version of a Fender Deluxe Reverb. Actually most of their small amps from back then are pretty cool. The prices of 50's and 60's Ampegs are still much cheaper than vintage Fenders which is nice. There have been reissues and new versions but i haven't played those
