On this week’s Academy Of Tone, Thomas delves into the iconic Fender Tweed sound!
Sometimes, you have to look into the future to rediscover the beauty of the past. While Thomas was working on AMPX sounds recently, he began to look into Tweed tones, and this led him to rekindle his joy for his beloved all-original 1957 Fender Tweed Deluxe 5E3.
Fender Tweed amps are such simple things, and yet they are true tone monsters – you just have to listen to records by the likes of Larry Carlton, Neil Young and Keith Richards for proof of that. Indeed, so strong is their mojo that the humble Tweeds even inspired the late, great Howard Dumble on his journey towards making the most desirable boutique amps on the planet.
So, let Thomas take you through the magic of Tweed, and he’ll also show you how to get close to those hallowed tones using AMP1… have your boosters at the ready!
On this theme, we also have an exciting interview with Udo Pipper to share. Renowned in the industry in Germany and beyond for his tone guru work on guitars and amps, Udo tells Thomas all about the magic of Tweed, and more. His knowledge of iconic amps is up there with the best of them, and his decades of tone tweaking experience have made him a wanted man when it comes to making the pros sound better!
In the second part of the show, Thomas is joined by award-winning blues harp player Chris Kramer, who uses AMP1 with his harp! With his pedalboard, built around the AMP1, Chris shows us what you can do with a harp, and even teaches us the basics of that instrument – so have yours at the ready if you want to learn some new skills!
