Thrift shop find

[Kerry Brown]

May be the best $40 I've ever spent. This is a 60's 6V6 based amp called a Piper D45T made in Canada by Garnet. It is all original. Has the original made in USA Sylvania tubes, two 6V6GTA , two 12AX7/7025A, and a 12" Marsland speaker also made in Canada. It has amazing cleans, especially with my strat. The strat sings with this amp. I was considering selling the strat but I'll have to rethink that now. The best part about the amp is the tremolo. It is creamy and lush. I don't use tremolo on an amp but I'm going to be now. Here's some pictures.

The old Marsland speaker wasn't that great so I put a Celestion Seventy 80 speaker I had laying around in it. It was better but there is a reason it was laying around. Today I put in a WGS Reaper 30. Way, way better. My first experience with WGS. I'm quite impressed.

A friend of mine, has an old Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. About 6 months ago, he replaced the stock speaker with a WGS Reaper. This is an excellent and very affordable speaker for that amp. I'm impressed, too. The Reaper is suppose to be WGS's version of a Celestion G12H30, but a couple video shootouts I've seen between the two speakers, proves otherwise.

Just caught the warehouse addition. Three alien thumbs up. Big fan of warehouse speakers here (or should I say 'hear').
