1966 Silvertone 1482 - demo with Telecaster

[nbrothergtr]

Nice classic tone range from one amp.

[RocknLester2011]

Sounds pure!!!



[Stratomaster9654]

Which channel has more gain, the instrument channel or the mic channel?

[ph4720631]

beautiful.....got one meself......but, but, don't you use the top secret thick tone trick?? that's the BEST of the endless reasons to play this model!!

[herc122]

Hi do find that this amp is overly warm sounding even with the tone rolled out all the way to the right? Thanks

[1971SuperLead]

Sounds perfect!

[SmokeRingHalos]

Any idea how loud the volume was when you went into overdrive? I have one too and love it but when volume is 9 o' clock or over the sound cuts out sometimes. Even at 6 o' clock it still rarely cuts out a bit. Anything lower and it's fine though.

@SmokeRingHalos

you hear this amp. this is what yours SHOULD sound like.

groove tubes really make a difference.

[SimAlex20000]

amazing. awesome. love it. :D

[jfrizzlle]

loud enough for drums?

[cretsina]

how many watts is this amp?

[skilback]

@cretsina Probably about 10-12 Watts

[BlisterOnTheMoon]

Looks like a TV!!

[danakerman]

how did you walk around with the camera and play guitar at the same time? You're talented, dude!!

[Taygoo15]

Why do some of these its looks as if the speaker is a triangle

[skilback]

@Taygoo15 The triangle shape behind the grillcloth on some 1482 amps is just the cutout in the speaker baffle. The speaker is a round 12" driver. Hope that helps.

[Taygoo15]

@skilback What did you have the tone set on this video

[skilback]

@Taygoo15 If I remember correctly, the tone on the amp was set to maximum.

[Taygoo15]

@skilback Do you think a new speaker would brighten this puppy up.

[Taygoo15]

@skilback Is the speaker a Jensen

[skilback]

@Taygoo15 No, it's the original Fischer AlNiCo speaker.

[OttarBerg]

What model of Don Mare pickups?

[skilback]

hi @OttarBerg, it's a S-Telly neck pickup and either a 0038 Broadcaster bridge or his Tweed Monster (I honestly can't remember at this point). Both great bridge pickups but the 0038 has a thicker midrange, while the TM is more traditional sounding with fuller frequency response. Hope that helps!

Hi man, i love the song of this amp, where have you bought it please or where can i find it ?

[StangLX718]

Is this amp durable enough to take to gigs? Or is it more of a studio amp? Great sound!

[skilback]

The cabinet is not solid wood, more of a pressed fiberboard type of material... so you wouldn't want to sit on it. But it's lasted this long. It's not as loud as a tweed deluxe though, so it depends how much volume you need.

[garbeaj]

This was one of my first amps and I still love it! How did you date yours?

[guitarcynic]

These can be dated by using the speaker or pot codes. If it has the original Silvertone tubes, these have date on them too.

GREAT AMPS!! & wonderful playing.

[suonoblues]

GREAT BLUSTONE!!!  bluestherapyst

[dnauheim]

[skilback]

Thanks!
