After watching a great episode on the Fender Deluxe Reverb from the boys at That Pedal Show - I wanted to explore some of the ideas that really are making it difficult for guitarists to actually use Amps on gigs in 2024...

00:00 TPS did a great episode on the Deluxe Reverb
00:35 but Amps have been struggling for a while
00:57 Using Helix Native and a Deluxe Reverb
3:00 this is a Deluxe Reverb on 2 with a Zendrive - bonkers
3:10 the Silent Stage is killing amps
4:00 if you want to work playing guitar - it's pretty much inevitable?
4:24 Why Silent (or quiet) stages are hard to avoid
5:15 pubs and bars you can still use an Amp
5:50 a lot of the session/touring guys ALSO play wedding functions
6:30 is a Deluxe Reverb too loud?
8:00 a sound guy will probably ask you to turn down to 2.5 (if you're lucky)
8:49 luckily a Deluxe Reverb still sounds good at 2.5
9:20 what if the bassist doesn't have an amp?
10:10 an inferior experience for the guitarist - but does anyone else care?
10:20 can you trick a sound guy?
11:40 what if there's two guitarists?
12:35 drummers are no doubt a noisier bunch
14:00 A solution we RARELY talk about from Joe Bonamassa
15:47 another solution we RARELY talk about
17:00 Even John Mayer has to be pragmatic....
