Have one.. think it's a 1968.. all original from what I see... jensen blue in back.. in NJ. Just a great amp.. classic.. muddy to clean sound and effects. Maybe looking to sell.. any idea on pricing?
Pfft..... This guy may know how to play a little bit, but he sure don't know amps, at least this one.
There is no way to get enough drive for a reverb if you stick it in before the preamp. That switch seems to be invisible here. The G-12 DID have an after-beat switch on the trem though, so that is what he's probably referring to though he shows his lack of knowledge with the amp.
I honestly wish I could play bass. I suck really bad at that. I Plan on making a whamola once I can find the time. I saw your video a few months ago. Looks really cool.
Falcon's sound good (love the verb and trem on those) but they're so darn quiet! That whole RVT series of amps Gibson built were wayyyy underpowered. A falcon cranked to 10 would be drowned out in even a relatively sedate band situation. This G-12 probably pumps out a good deal more volume.

Bass amps... stupid? Wtf? I've heard that they're actually rather useful when one's trying to amplify a bass (but that's just a wild rumour). :)

Sounds a bit like my V4 with less balls. Pretty bassy sounding. I love Ampegs, but I'd take my Gibson Falcon over this thing any day.
