  • This is a long but rewarding video of a much longer process.
    Watch Part One here:
    • Requiem for a Bassman?...
    The full video of Brian playing his “new” Deluxe Reverb(s) without me talking over him:

    Heck ya! You do insanely high quality work, Lyle. I'm always so impressed and inspired by your attention to detail and refusal to compromise. Bravo!

  • @weschilton
    @weschilton 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +25

    Wow, Lyle, that is some transformation! Its good to see that the rust didn't eat through the metal anywhere.
    Also I need to say its lovely how deliberate, thoughtful and respectful you are in your approach to these old amps... its wonderful to watch you work.

    Awesome job! Amazing to think that this amp has 'lived' for 57 years and was then nearly out of the game for good, but now gets its re-birth documented for posterity. Whoever owns this one in 2066, will have a great amp and some amazing footage to look back on!

    Love the voice over, sped up work in progress style editing. It's nice to see the steps you take and order of operations that are second nature to you, but to some of us are experienced gained through your hours on the bench. Thanks for the upload Lyle, killer work as always.

    Well, the outcome was worth all the trouble. I cannot wait to see the results in part three of this spine-tingling trilogy. So, it will be called Bassman III. (this time it's personal). These installments have looked arduous, but I enjoy the fact that your perseverance is shining through it. Bring on part III! Enjoy your weekend.

    • @PsionicAudio

    It takes a multi-track mind to not only PLAN all this work then DO all this work, but to keep the camera in mind and reposition it as the focus of work moves around takes that much more concentration. Well done, as a repair and a video.

    Leo originally built these tanks for PROS. How you remembered what went back to where, is quite amazing. As a guitar player of 62+ years, I VERY much appreciate that these amps are not just a source of income for you; but that they really matter to you.

    @john3892 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Terrific. As with Part One I enjoyed your measured and highly knowledgeable approach, especially in dealing with such an extreme case of neglect. (My only reservation was the annoying noodling going on in the background. It’s like having a 14 year old practicing upstairs in their bedroom while trying to concentrate on the TV.) I hope future editions will be accompanied solely by your own mellifluous tones!

    Beautiful job on Trusty Rusty's miracle makeover. Harbor Freight (and Princess Auto in Canada) has a set of 3 thumbwheel ratchets for $5 that are perfect for low-torque/tight space applications. They're a no-handle rarchet head withv deep knurling on the outside. One of those "I wish I had known about this sooner' tools.
