Not being overly familiar with original Sewell’s, can you tell me a little about the amp? Suppose I could google, but we don’t see many here, so little history couldn’t hurt.
It's 35 watts of great clean sound. Clean forever. Via a toggle it's also has a lower power mode of 28 watts. 15" California Weber speaker. Also has a toggle that moves it from fixed bias mode to cathode mode. This was added by a previous owner. Tubes are 2x 616, one big bottleneck rectifier, 12at7, 12ax7wa and 5751. No effects, just volume, bass, treble. Doug was making these in Texas when he was offered the gig at PRS. Instead of serial numbers, he gave them Texas-style names, thus Joe Bob. The sound is just great; CLEAN and punchy. Cathode mode adds a little grit. Think Teles and Texas bars. I just love it.
What a great group this is. You're cracking me up!
