How to get Fender Bassman like breakup in a tube amp?
norm gave nice answer.
want add there several types of "break -up" , people talking clipping of power tubes rather speaker break up. many people, including me, believe 6l6 best sounding tube, @ break up.
being said, part of attraction of bassman fact desired model is/was 4x10 tweeds made between '55-'60. that's baby ;'(. 4 10 inch speakers break differently 2 12 inch speakers, or single 15 inch.
it's complicated spence, basically, norm absolutely correct blues deluxe isn't going sound bassman-sorry. (in fact, never thought reissues sounded original 4x10 tweed-close, no cigar)
there plenty of amps break beautifully though. haven't played through blues deluxe in awhile, you've heard me raving '48 magnatone. she'll never replace bassman, she's got own sweet voice.
if want lost awhile-
