Great playing

A hand wired tweed deluxe is sweeter , especially with a anilco blue

Exactly what i was searching for. Thank you !

It's the Deluxe ❤‍🔥, he feels more like an "instrument" and not like an "amplifier" ❤❤❤

Both sound fantastic. The Magnatone has like a higher mid frequency honk. I personally feel the Fender HW DR is hands down the better of the two but I'm biased. Nothing beats a Fender cleanish tone to me, and you got yourself a great DR there. The Magnatone is great too, though. There's no denying that. You got some fine gear there, bud.

The 64 is smoother and not as harsh as the magnatone.

I owned both of these amps at one point. Ended up keeping the Deluxe after I swapped out the speaker for an Allesandro SC 64. It's a fantastic amp.

2X10’s ?

lol Crocs inside ur house on ur own carpet?

Buy a guitar stand. Geez...

always loved magnatone.

30 better open highs, fluppy bass and visa versa

Very cool. I'm leaning towards the Fender as my next amp. We'll see.

What was your overdrive ?

Deluxe Reverb is so nice , great demo thanks for playing some actuall songs instead of nonsense noodling

The Deluxe has more bass and much rounder sounding. Excellent pedal platform if you choose to go that way!

magnatone.......

I turely agree with your sentiment. I have a dod eq pedal instead of the ge7 from boss. You get a few more db to mess with on the dod eq.

I have deluxe reverb and I like the magnatone just as well.

i had a vintage 65 DR. all original except some caps. it was amazing. not the same as the custom DR. i used a brown box which made a huge difference.

Yeah the best way to run helix is its preamps through the front of amps. Saves dsp and sounds the best imo. I carry two 1x12 combos for stereo

How does the nobles in the helix one thing sound compared to those? 😂

You gonna use the flint tremolo or hx one’s? I have a mobius, debating getting an hx one to do weird pitch effects etc. but don’t think it would replace the strymon stuff.

Both amps sound great but you're playing is off the charts !! Mighty fine !!

That song is a G-major.. not minor. Sounds good anyway

Your camera being closer to the Magnatone made it sound fuller. I liked both, depending on what you were playing.

Both sound great probably the guitar choice would be interesting too great though

Great vid man. Been an acoustic player for 25 years. Finally delving into the world of electric and building my first board. Really useful vid with no BS. Exactly what's needed on YT.

Is the magnatone 6v6 or El 84?

great pickin

The deluxe is good until you need to play outside and realise that a transistor radio has more volume.

I have owned a Super Reverb and a Bassman Reissue that I loved.As much as I love Fender that Magnatone has it going on!

Hey man, great video. Personally i like better how the Fender sounds, warmer maybe? Also maybe due to where the mic was in the room but to me the Fender better balanced in the mid freqs. Thanks for sharing

what's the riff at 5:58? Both sound amazing Magnatone by a nose for me

I cringe when people lay there guitars like that ? So bad for the neck

Have you ever opened for your dad darius?

Nice demo, thank you! The Magnatone did sound great, but I think the Deluxe would be my choice. The Deluxe seemed to have little more definition overall. Thanks Derrick, Cheers!

Both amps sound great. I personally preferred the sound of the Magnatone. Nice comparison video!

Holy that magnatone sounds insanely good!

Nice playing, Derrick! To these ears, if you graphed the frequency response of these two amps, the Fender graph would be shaped like a “u” (scooped mids) and the Magnatone like an “n” (prominent mids). Different strokes for different folks, of course, but they each sound great in their own way!

dont know if the magnatone is closer to the mic, but I def like it better

The deluxe sounds like it has more presence and a bit more clarity.

Magnatone Panoramic stereo really is in a class of its own, even when stacked against stellar amps like Fender. Nothing else has that magic for me. I do prefer a Gibson tone with these over a Fender guitar.

Sounds great if you’re using your cell phone to record with try putting it in the center of the amps not off to the side give it a little bit more accurate volume

When you twangle the plank it go like booooiiinngg - no doubt oh yes 😊

Recording King Dirty 30’s are really good too.

The speaker in DlxR HW (Jensen C-12Q) is disastrous crap. Swap it to superior Jensen Tornado Classic 100. Plug in the Normal channel and it beats Two Rock - used to have TR.

I owned the Magnatone Twilight and wound up selling it. It was very capable and the pitch shifting tremolo was cool but I found it to be very 'forward' and "in-your-face'. I have owned a Fender 64 Deluxe Reverb Custom Hardwired for several years now and simply put, it is "musical". It has a way of sounding dimensional where the sound it not as focused or punchy as the Twilighter. Great demo sir. I too admire your skills, chops and talent.

Love your playing

Magnatone's highs and body have my attention, although you can't go wrong with a Deluxe.
