Tomo, how do you like the Pro Reverb for its bedroom volume? I'm thinking about getting a Princeton, Pro, or Deluxe Reverb, but I'm not sure if the Pro will suit me or be too loud. I really enjoy the Fender clean tone and don't really care for Fender amps breaking up too much!

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@RuecianG Pro Reverb is a great amp for any volume. Princeton is nice chioce too. Tomo

[DeanMusic95]

Great tone. Great playing as well

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@DeanMusic95 Thanks!

Tomo

funny how the teacher uses a student's signature strat :)

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@fend14 That was a gift from John. I think it' funny to think that you think this is funny!

[paulefty]

This is how a Strat's supposed to sound like :P

[JLTBS]

Your Amp is Wonderland.

Oopps! I should have read the video captions better. It states what speakers are used...sorry :/

[3GCMusic]

Tomo, what speakers are in the Pro reverb?

If not stock; I'd love to hear your recommendations. Thanks!

[princeoftroy89]

I hope you are my teacher someday, Mr. Fujita.

[RuecianG]

@TomoFujitaMusic Had the opportunity to trade one of my guitars and got a DRRI. Perfect for me. Not a big fan of when it gets really overdriven but it sounds really angelic at around 6. Thanks for the input! I need to try out a Pro Reverb one of these days.

[RyanHigaftw]

Hey thanks :)

What would be a good pick for blues? I'm looking for a good round tone...

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@RyanHigaftw I think most people practice guitar for a lot of hours but you should practice to build your condition/foundation for your performance so you need to practice simple chromatic scale for your picking and fingering. Check my AYGP dvd. You will improve this.

[RyanHigaftw]

Hey Tomo, a lil question :) I have exclusively been playing with my fingers for about 2 and a half years, but i really like the edgy tone a pick gives, but im having some difficulties when playing fast licks... How can you improve your pick accuracy?

@Fichtezxc Thank you so much! Set treble 6-7, bass 3-4. then work on your touch, picking nuances with dynamics.

[Fichtezxc]

Beautiful, beautiful tone. Wow. I have a Deluxe and I haven't quite been able to achieve a tone like that. What was your EQ like if you remember?

[slowhand124]

I have tried all those amps, these Fender pro series Twin and Pro, sound pretty good, a little different, but good nonetheless. Other Fender sleepers are the Fender 75 from the eighties.

[bellsmyre49]

I've got an early Silverface - sounds very similar

[petrochemicals4u]

sweet !......guess you could loose hours just foolin around with that sound !....ahh, those summer nights ! ! !

[tjalla]

Where's the compression in the audio coming from?

[iceman91291]

great playing!!! love your tone!!! how much did this pro reverb cost you? and would you recommend it over a deluxe reverb reissue?

[zaccyo]

sweet tone just sounds like a robot is playing its that boring

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@hypnotard GZ34, 6L6(2) 40 watts, just amazing Fender combo to me.

Tomo

[TomoFujitaMusic]

@chaosIsTheOnlyPower Thanks! Pat is great guy. I love Wes, Joe Pass.

[hypnotard]

how is this amp different than a '64 bandmaster?

Better? I have a '63 concert I love and a '69 twin

any comparisons I could relate to? Is the PR much nicer than the bandmaster?
