Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Since this could be any amp and not just a Rickenbacker Amp I figure the Rickenbacker General would be the place to post.
I've owned an AC30, AC15, and a BF Deluxe Reverb during the time I've owned my Rickenbackers. The 2 Vox's were not vintage rather late model CC's.
Nice amps but I ended up using the Deluxe for the most part. Sold the Vox's.
But I have plugged the Ricks into many amps over the past year or so and I really am quite happy with their sound generally in most amps. Especially the 360.
But for now I'm playing through a Deluxe Reverb.
What are some of you running your Rickenbackers through (bassist please comment, too)?

Rickenbacker guitar + Fender amplifier = bliss

After trying every Dr.Z, Matchless, Vox, Orange, etc. I found a Fender Super Sonic to be the best pairing for my Rics.

It does everything I ask of it.

Blackface Deluxe Reverb

Most of the time, it's the AC 30 in this photo. It's a `73 I had rewired to 60s top boost spec, and a new cabinet built for. Otherwise I use an AC30 CC2X.

On rare occasion I'll pair the AC30 with one of my Fender Twins.

Kendrick Texas Crude 112...Sweeeet!!

Keep 'em comin'
Great to see that Rick sound is coming through many different amps.

Primarily a Fender Hot Rod Deville 4x10 but sometimes my Roland JC-120.

Line6 Flextone Plus. I vary between "Tweed Blues", "Black Panel" and "Brit Class A". Lots of reverb. Cool subltle difference between emulation modes.

On rare occasions, Vox AC50, which I normally use for bass, with a Roommate reverb pedal. NIce clean sound with huge headroom.

For guitar, an early '70s Princeton Reverb Amp, perfect tone. This has been modded with a vintage Celestion G12M-70 speaker.

For bass, Walter Woods Super or Markbass F1 into custom EV B-110 cabinet; Markbass Minimark, sometimes with the 1-10 cabinet.

"Coming Soon!!!":

New Dr. Bass custom 2-12 cabinet.

Kustom K200 + 2X12 cabinet, and boy, it's a boat anchor....and LOUD

Fender HR Deluxe or Blues Junior: both with some simple mods - only ones I've got!

For bigger gigs, Vox Valvetronix AD120VTH head with various speaker cabs and a VC12 controller.

For smaller gigs and at home I now use an Egnater Rebel 20 head (1-20watts dialable) with either a 1 x 12 cab made from a Crate G60 combo amp and Celestion G70 equipped, or the Vox AD212 with twin Celestion built Neo-Dogs. I am currently constructing a Bill Fitzmaurice XF212 with a pair of Eminence Tonkerlite 12's which is a tiny very light 2x12 cab with some interesting speaker features.

I have to say the Egnater head is a dynamo ND very LOUD. Great cleans, nice overdrives, tons of gain if required, and the ability to dial in different mixes of 6V6 and EL84 output tubes. It even cooks with a Vox Tonelab. This is the best new bit of kit I've had since picking up my 620JG. Best part is, I can keep up with any jam night band with the Egnater head and the 1x12 cab, and I can carry the entire rig and 2 guitars in one trip. The head even came with a padded gig bag. Now I know what you Mark Bass equipped fellas have been on about. My back loves it.

6 string Rickenbacker - a Peavey 212 Stereo Chorus. Nothing but the best for my guitars. I like these amps so much that I have two of them.
12 string Rickenbacker - a 1971 Fender Twin Reverb
4001 and 4003 basses - a 1975 Sunn Model T head with an 8-10 Behringer cab. On occasion I use a Roland Cube 60 Bass amp.

Vox Valvetronix AD100VT 2 X 12 combo. Have just recently bought it, and, as i've said elsewhere, i'm impressed by what it can do. The 360 sounds awesome through it!
