Some of you might rmember that I bought a Fender Ramparte amp about 6 months ago. It was a good low volume amp (9 watts), and I had played my Fender Classic Player Thinline Tele Deluxe (Fender's Wide Range humbuckers) through it at the music store, just for fun. I was impressed with the tone, so I bought it. Besides the Thinline Tele, it seemed to like Strats, but not other humbuckers, because this amp's tone is weighted toward the low end, and it has no tone knob. After I got the '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, I was feeling like this might be an expendable amp, because I was getting such a great balanced tone, with a little bit of sparkle, from the '65.
Well, last week I decided to get a Boss GE-7 Equalizer pedal, to see what it would do with the Ramparte. I hadn't been able to try it out until tonight, and I must have spent about 2 hours playing and adjusting the pedal. I have to say that I am totally impressed with what this pedal has done for the Ramparte amp. As far as I'm concerned, it has totally brought this amp to life. I just played the Fender Deluxe Player's Strat through it tonight, but I got every bit of high end sparkle out of this amp. Now, I'm looking forward to trying it with a few more guitars with humbuckers.
I'm really finding this to be a very cool pedal, and I'm really still getting used to it.
Does anyone else have one of these?
