sfk, I’d guess the Jube is an 87. Nice Super Lead! Thank you!

How has the Origin been for you?
Leftee, I haven't been able to play it much so far. But initial experience is I like it! The power scaling is great and I don't notice much tone change. I'm a mild overdrive guy mostly and it has enough gain for me. The tone controls work. The effects loop works fine. Around the house, I use it on the mid setting (~10 watts) with the master up high and the gain midway. The footswitch gain boost is nice, noticeable and increases volume not just dirt. Generally pretty clean and bright, but the tone and presence controls allow you to match different guitars, while still having enough inherent gain. Haven't tried gain pedals in front yet. Certainly is loud enough thru my 1x15 cab!

Thanks for the info. I see that, sadly, Larry Rodgers died in 2016.
I have a blonde Bassman, head only, and I think a 1x15 combo cab for it would be just the thing. Maybe J.D. Newell.

That LT50 is an awesome sounding amp. Amazing what they can do now for smaller change!

That LT50 is an awesome sounding amp. Amazing what they can do now for smaller change! The 12" speaker gives it authority. The Fender emulation electronics, in, what, their fifth or sixth generation, do the rest. Can't beat the weight and price and tone, for a baby-boomer stay at home muddler like me.

Blues Jr.: Has been a great amp for me, not a single issue. Did some of the mods to it way back when. Seymour Duncan Convertible: Not sure what I was thinking buying this thing. It's neat for sure, but I don't need it. '65 Gibson GA5t: Nice little amp, much better after I put in a Celestion Gold. RedPlate Bluesmachine: Effin' awesome amp! Original owner ordered it with added tremolo. There are other amps I'd love to own but this one will do me fine. Other stuff: Pignose, Lunchbox Mini, and a '65 Ampeg Rocket II. This one had been kicking around my brothers place many moons ago and had been abused. He doesn't even know where it came from. It had been modded, tremolo removed, perhaps for a midrange pot and/or something else. The couple of people that looked at it were perplexed and I haven't had any good reason to start tossing dollars at it. It'd be nice to get it back to stock and running nicely though.

I'm easy these days.
Early Hot Rod Deluxe (with the Emi speaker I prefer and the brutal, ugly distortion that I actually like in small doses!) Boss Katana Mk II (closest thing to a do-it-all thing I've ever used, even if it's not hooked up to the editor) Fender Mustang V & 4x12 cab (for the low-end thump and the half-decent tweed models, which is about all I use it for now - it's also a very decent little stereo power amp for the Avid Eleven Rack I have laying around!) Marshall DSL1 head & 1x12 cab: I rarely use the gain channel, even though it does very passable Marshall 80s and 90s tones. I keep it around because with the one-knob volume at 7 or so with buckers, it does a very decent no-volume Plexi impression. Roland Jazz Chorus 50. 1970s Jazz Chorus goodness in a slightly less heavy package. Used much less now tha ti have a Boss CE-2W with the CE-1 mode (and the all-important vibrato that I abuse on the JC, with NONE of the fifty years of electrical noise/circuit drift)

I sold a lot of spendy stuff so I could buy a larger quantity of less-spendy stuff. Currently: 1. Katana Mini. Awesome sound. Installed a speaker out jack; thru a 2X 12 it's amazing. 2. Fender Mustang Mini. Versatile but for some reason I don't love it. Probably will sell. 3. Vox Mini Superbeetle. 4. 1971 Princeton Reverb. Also a matching 1X12 extension cab. 5. Vox AC15C1X with Blue Alnico. 6. Fender DRRI Lim. Edition with Alnico. 7. Fender Bassbreaker 007 Lim. Edition with Greenback. 8. Fender Super Champ X2 with Ragin Cajun. 9. Marshall Origin 50 head with custom 1X15 cab. 10. Traynor Quarter Horse (pedal amp- sounds good) thru 1X8 Vox cab. Sold: BF Twin Reverb BF Super Reverb SF Deluxe Reverb BF Bandmaster

My regular el-cheapo Katana 50 gets most of my playtime, but I've bene programming the GT-100 it's based on for ages and was able to dial in my basic patches FAST. Used it exclusively (no outboard toys) in a "week spent in the Mojave recording" this last summer and never felt a lack.

I only recently connected it to my laptop to download some custom sounds.. it's great as is, plus the 0.5 watt setting is useful with the hours I keep.

Yea, I don't keep mine plugged in once I had it set up.
Mostly wanted continuity of pedals on most of the built-in patches (so "overdrive" always has a HM-2 in it, etc).

After some deliberation, I sold my nicest amp last week; a showroom quality 1966 Tremolux. I could have advertised it and grabbed an other $500, but I was not willing to put up with lowballers, tire kickers and idjuts. It went to a guy I've known (not real well) for over 40 years, and I'm glad it went to a good home. In high school most kids walked home and got into a street hockey game soon after, while he woodshedded. He's been a sought-after player since he was 15, and played professionally in cover bands of both rock and country. At 15, a high-school teacher convinced his parents that he would keep an eye on him personally so they could get him into the band. The drummer got busted for weed (1973) and the parents yanked him out of the lineup. I jokingly stated that the Tremolux was likely the only amp in Fender's lineup that he hadn't owned. The response? "Well, my dad bought a blonde one for me in Moncton when I was about 14, it was $100 or $9 to rent it for two weeks to try out, so we rented it. The next day we went back to the store and forked out the $100 (not $91) to keep it. I delivered weekend newspaper supplements @ $1.25 to help pay for it; that and gigs paying $15-$20/night."

That looks cool! Where did you get the cab? Thanks! It's a Rogers cab. They made custom cabs. I used to see adds around for them back in the early mid 2000s it seems like. There's a stamp on the inside of the cabinet. It that Larry Rogers? If it is, his work was exceptional. He made me a new birch wood cab for my Vibrolux Reverb. If it's the same guy, I believe he passed a few years ago.
