Fender Deluxe Reverb vs Amp and Cab Sims (Strymon Iridium Joyo American TC Combo Deluxe 65)

[@andrewmoran357]

I use Joyo into a Nux Studio to get different mic and cab options and it brings it to life much better

[@reginaldperiwinkle]

I enjoy your videos. I'm always curious whether the cab sims will eventually sound as good as an amp so it's good to have new videos on this subject. They're not there yet!

[@middleagedgearjunkie]

I'd agree, they're not there yet.

[@Michel-r6m]

That is a very nice pedal. Reasonably priced as well. Enjoy 🤠

I have Scuffham S-gear; it cost me £100 a few years ago; it sounds better to me than anything else I've heard or tried; I have the Joyo, I've had the Iridium, and I've had one of those UA Dream '65s; S-gear blows them all out of the water;

[@middleagedgearjunkie]

I've heard the UA is amazing

[@NewFalconerRecords]

Another fine video. Interesting how you pronounce the Joyo, "Jo-Yo" whereas I say "Joy-O". Have no idea which one of us are correct by the way. Interested in what other viewers think. Cheers mate!

[@middleagedgearjunkie]

I wonder what the story is behind the name. What is it with these Chinese brand names?

[@simonkaye7268]

Yep.....Still the amp wins....woohoo! Best value for $$ it's the joyo. Good imitation of life. Good to see you haven't been bludging on hols buddy.....enjoy and thanks!!!

@simonkaye7268 😄 I was down in Canberra and Sydney for a bit, the Mrs has a list of chores she wants me do while on holidays 🙄

[@simonkaye7268]

@middleagedgearjunkie argh yes , "the list" that never ends. Enjoy the break!

Love the videos. I wanted the american to work for me, but any time i used any gain or a pedal into it, it was too noisy.

[@middleagedgearjunkie]

I found the Iridium better for gain stacking, but it was WAAAY more expensive

[@TangentGrove]

If your Deluxe is a 68 Custom Classic, it does not have a bright cap.

[@middleagedgearjunkie]

@TangentGrove the vibrato channel has the bright cap, the custom channel doesn't. The custom channel is voiced to be similar to a Fender Bassman.

The amp.
