ppimv in a fender

Has anyone ever tried putting one of these in a fender? I'm wondering if it would work as well as in a marshall.

I put one in a Fender Super Reverb. Works about the same as my Marshalls. It really sounds good at about 12 to 2 o'clock which is a reasonable volume for me.

Great question ... I was wondering the same with a Bassman.

I don't see why it shouldn't work. a Bassman is pretty close to a NMV Marshall, anyway...

Only through '60.....blondes and blackfaces don't have much in common with their 5F6-A roots........still an interesting and different overdrive sound with the 60's Bassmans though.

Have you ever had a chance to try it? Most of the time I'm fine volume wise but every once and a while I'll play a small club gig and the sound guy will bitch about how loud I am and I'll have to rely completely on my fulltone for overdrive. I've thought about doing this to help with those situations but I'm afraid it will change the character of the amp.

could you put one in a 5f1 circuit? (1959 tweed champ)

No.....I just use the MASS if my Fenders are too loud nowadays. And when I was gigging the singer and I shared the soundguy duties 50/50, so no one was bitching if we weren't.

The 5F1 Tweed Champs are single ended amps (SE), they don't have a phase inverter (PI) - so there post PI (PPI) nothing is possible
