  I own a '76 Super Six that came with 6 10" orange JBLs made for Fender. I had never seen these speakers before but I really like them.

  I am a new viewer of your channel and feel like I have found a gold mine of information on everything about guitar amps. You talk about these amps in somewhat technical terms but guys like me who don’t work on their gear can still understand what you are talking about. I appreciate your honesty and objectivity and really appreciate what you are doing. I look forward to watching all of your old content and everything new. Great work and thank you from this Fender tube amp fan!

  I hope the customer goes for the full boat with De-spaghetti-ing service. That will make for a great video series.

  I like the way the mid to late 70’s Super’s sound. They don’t do the chewy overdrive that the AB763 amps do. If you’re going for SRV style sounds, these do it bone stock.

  Just wanted to say that you&apos;re content is top-notch, and I don&apos;t even own a tube amp. I&apos;m an apartment dweller so modeling works great for me, though I do enjoy the analog design and engineering of tube amps. In any case, I really enjoy watching your content because it&apos;s well recorded, you know what you&apos;re talking about, and I learn plenty of new things every single episode.

  I love Super Reverbs - it was such a treat to get a peek at what make these things tick. &nbsp;I&apos;ve owned a bunch of Fender amps including Deluxes, Twins, Princetons and even an old blackface Champ, but there is just something special about the Supers (IMHO!). &nbsp;Really fun and informative video to watch! &nbsp;Many thanks!

  IMO, any silverface is worth the rehab, provided it&apos;s properly done.
