I set my drip edge DR back to blackface (AB763) for a couple of reasons.

1.) Bias control pot.


WTFAYTA?

The Deluxe Reverb always had a traditional bias control pot -- up to and including the late '70s silverfaces with the pull-boost circuit.

Arjay,

I meant SR (not DR).

Right! 1976 SR with tube rectifier and no UL taps.

Your secretary mistyped your response as you were dictating it.

Yep, I'm lucky. It has the best of both worlds to me, the easily blackface-able circuit, and a master volume, which to be completely honest, comes in handy for moments like now when my insomnia keeps me awake and makes me re string my Mosrite and play as many Ventures songs as I can muster through a wall of cavernous reverb. Btw, Arjay, what are your views on Blackfacing my SR?
