My Guitar Amp Heads and Cabinets[Chuck Glisson].
Guitar amplifiers & cabinets
Over 200 Watts of Doubled Stereo Guitar Sound.




Guitar Amp Heads;



I run a "Split Signal", with a "Slight Delay" on one channel, and feed each signal into two "Separate & Distinct" Amp Heads, which in turn drive their "Own" Dedicated "2-12" Speaker Cabinets.


Speaker Cabinets;

I usuelly run two "2-12" speaker cabinets placed "Stage Right" and "Stage Left".



Each cabinet is loaded with two "Jensen JCH-12/70" 8-Ohm speakers, wired in "Parallel".


Power handling capability of each cabinet is 140 Watts at 4-Ohms.



Due to a Slight 100% "Wet Delay" to [1] of the [2] Cabinets", a "Doubled Stereo Effect" is created Live!


My "Downsized" rig;

For "Smaller" gigs l aquired an Early-Mid 90's "Teal Stripe" Peavey Bandit "1-12" 80 Watt combo amplifier.



I got lucky finding THIS one, because even though being over 30 years old at the time of purchase, this amp was in excellent physical condition, plus it had the "Welcome Rare Option" of factory caster wheels, and these 90's Peavey Bandits were quite heavy.
The only "Descrepency", this amp had was that the springs in the reverb tank were shot, so I replaced the original long "Two Spring" reverb tank, with a US made "New Old Stock" Accutronics "Type 8" short "Three Spring" reverb tank;



which I consider an "Upgrade" because of the tighter & smoother "Less Glitchy" reverb, that this design produces, which I prefer.

Eventually the cone of the original Peavey "
Scorpion" speaker gave out, so I replaced it with an Eminence "Swamp Thang" speaker;

This replacement speaker has a sensitivity rating of 102 dB, vise the 97 dB of the original "Peavey Scorpion" speaker, which equates to a HUGE increase in "Available Volume".

The Speaker swap also improved the "Articulation" of this amp's "Tone" as well, especially in the "Lower Mids".


Fine Tuning & Stereo Doubling;

Another permanent part of my Amplification Rig is a "Small Pedalboard" that sits atop of my amps;



With [4] Guitar Pedals & a "Signal Splitter", chained in this order;

✓ Wampler "Ethereal" Delay & Reverb pedal,

✓ Orange "Two Stroke" Dual Band Mid Parametric Equalizer,

✓ A "High Plate Voltage" 60's Fender Clone Tube Driven Preamp with "Gain, Volume, Bass & Treble",

✓ Donner "ABY Box" for signal splitting to create a second channel,
&
✓ Electro Harmonics "#1 Echo" Digital Delay Pedal,

All working together, "In Tandom", to generate AMP SPECIFIC;
"High Voltage Tube driven Harmonic Overdrive",
"Bass, Treble, & Dual Band Parametric Mid Equalization",
plus
"Delay, Reverb, and Stereo Doubling".
