A few months ago, I was fortunate enough to have the chance to own a piece of Texas Rock and Roll History...
Texas Rockabilly Legend, Matt Hole was in the process of liquidating some of his long time vintage gear, and as soon as I saw the ad, I KNEW I had to have something! I mean, I grew up listening to Matt Hole and the Hot Rod Gang at local clubs, and venues. Besides having one of the most bad ass names I've ever heard, it is not unusual at all to see crowds of women on stage singing background vocals while Matt tears it up!
This gem in particular is a 1972 Fender Silverface Vibro Champ. Typically, amps of this age will need a cap job among other things, but we sat down with it after a retube, and speaker replacement to see how it sounded...
it was AWESOME!
until it went silent and popped... and then came the smoke...
Pt 2 coming next week!
