tiens je viens de recevoir un mail de Greg Germino:
"Richard,
Congrats on the gig! Sounds like a very fun band to play with!
There are several suggestions I will bring to the table.
I personally feel you are going to need a solid state rectifier.
A GZ-34 is going to be too soft and rounded for emulating this style.
Also you would need higher voltage at the output stage beyond what a
stock Club 40 would produce (415vdc) to give the proper amount of
attack. So....perhaps a Club 40 with the HV P/T (480vdc) using a ss
rectifer would do the job. The fact does remain that no 2 output
tube model will ever have the snappy response and huge percussive
attack that a four output tube model will have. The response of a
100 watter is much more immediant and very noticable.
The tweeked Club 40 may fit the bill excellently given the size
rooms you list. A 100 watter would be pretty loud for 50 seat gigs
is my guess. A Club 40 with the higer voltage P/T and ss rectifer
will be much louder than stock. It would also have much
better/quicker pick attack.
The Fillmore Classic does come to mind in that it is based on the
earliest of the EL-34 100 watt amps. While not a JTM45/100 the
circuit is the same and I have heard that this early style JTM-100
(aka black flag logo/reverse typeset JTM) is a favorite of at least
one of the Young brothers.
Yet another suggestion would be to convert your Super Lead to Super
Bass specs. This may not be something you want to do given the price
of what unmolested Super Lead's are bringing these days, but,
nonetheless an option.
I think you should use your existing cab, no need to get another cab
and deal with shipping to France. I'm sure the Blackbacks will work
just fine for what you are doing.
Hope the info helps!
Best Regards,
Greg G."
