Thanks & amazing! I just this minute sent an e mail off to Louis about his KR12. I had asked if he would provide just the head, in order to save costs amp & shipping costs.I’ve listed to that clip many times over the years, as well as numerous others of the KR12. It’s a great sounding amp ad I would love to try one in person some day. But IMO it doesnt sound any better or closer to the Keef tone than dozens of clips from the likes of Victoria, Lil Dawg, Headstrong, etc. There’s plenty of good options out there. The key for me has been finding the moist appropriate wattage and headroom amp for various situations (band, home practice, etc).
The HD12 is another Louis Electric amp that sounds great in some clips but the one I ordered was a major disappointment.I wish I had ordered the 6L6 version of the KR12 i was considering
He says yes he does build just the amp heads upon request. I'm waiting for a price from him. Honestly can't say as I've heard/listened to Victoria/Lil Dawg/Headstrong. Do have any model names I could Google? For me I'm looking for about 20w and that Keef sound.I have a good 12" cab and would need only order the Celestion Lead 12.
If you don't mind a related but off the cuff question. Due the open back ( or semi open back) of the Twin does the cabinet wood even come into play, tone wise? I have a pine box and a couple of MDF boxes so was wondering about that.
