Fender Dual Professional !!??

[Grem]

Never heard of it. But here it is. Looks pretty good to me. Listened to some of the videos and it does have a unique sound. Hand wired, hand built by Fender.

So, just get one extra just in case? ?

I'd rather have a Dual Showman Reissue over whatever that is.

But, but but..... Joe Bonamassa....

But you'll need 1 of Joe's 17 current Signature guitars too.  (btw: his Seymour Duncan pickups are on sale for ONLY 300,-).

Best start with:

For just $ 114.759,44  you get every item from his store, then you'll sound 100% like Joe.

I was at a wrap party at NRG in North Hollywood and when GS walked in, nearly everyone else left... there was only enough room available for him and his ego.

I have two of Joe Bonamasa guitars, both Epiphones. Except for the frets not being as polished as I like, they are two of my best sounding guitars. 

I would have no trouble buying that JB amp. I know it would be a quality instrument without a doubt. 

JB has learned how to merchandise his brand. And I will give him props for that. I have gotten a few of his items that interest me. 

I went seen him live. He ain't no joke.  He is the real deal. 

And Gene has taken what many thought was a flash in the pan, onehitwonder band, and despite all the controversy of Peter and Ace, and other past members,  they still have turned out music that sells. Along with tons of merchandise. 

Both are making bank.

Had a similar thing happen with David Lee Roth at a certain club in West Hollywood (as detailed more than once already!).

And the most hilarious part is...Even if you buy all of that, it will still cost less than a single Sky Guitar.

I just inquired about the amp, but was told I only qualify for the Fender Dual Amateur... ?

A lot of vintage gear is simplistic by today's standards, so that comes across as more brand name than amp to me. @DeeringAmps had mentioned he is slowing down on amp work, but it made me think he could probably build that for less, but he is also in tune with what the costs are these days.

[Bruno de Souza Lino]

There's only two pieces of amp history which interests me.

One is the Metasonix G-1000 *****ing *****er Amp, which I can't show the panel of for reasons you'll see if you look for it, due to David Lovelace's artwork of it and the  control labels. Essentially, Eric Barbour took a bog standard tube amp and every circuit where a tube could be placed regardless of function has a tube, giving the amp a total of 21 tubes. The amp runs so hot that it shuts itself down after two hours of use. When it first launched, only a limited run of them were made and sold for around 5k a pop. Trent Reznor was one of the people which bought one according to Eric.

The other is the Mojave Dirty Boy, which was a limited run of 25 of what technically would be considered Blues Sarraceno's signature amp. Think EVH is cool? He didn't have a built-in Variac in his modded Plexi...

 

And of course, the 200W Fender Dual Showman, which some would call The Dick Dale Amp, with the custom 2x15 cabinet with custom JBL speakers with aluminum caps:

That was three ?

[Pragi]

The world s best payed guitar player needs more money........ ?

What about some JB socks or a JB Parfum series ?

My DVA Fifty, 2 x 10" combo (is a channel switcher and reverb) retailed at $3499.
I would (reluctantly) build one at that price, but only because I have a couple of cabinets and chassis laying around somewhere.
Couldn't get "rich" if I was busting out one, even two every week.
Hand wired amps are a "labor of love"; I don't ❤️ the beech no mo.
I'd rather spend time in the studio...
