Any guesses on what amp to use for this tone?

[Sweeney]

I was checking out a Hendrix style lesson from Time Pierce and I'd love to be able to emulate his tone, anyone with good axe editing skills care to take a guess at what amp one might use to get this sound?

I also want to take a minute to thank the people on this forum for the enormous help over the past couple years with this incredible product.

Plexi type, scroll down to "Marshall" section. Jim mentions he used a Super 100

This is a fairly SRV type sound so I'd start out with one of the Fender Twin Reverb types.

+ neck pickup

Yes, Jimi used Plexis, but I think the OP was going for the tone in the video clip he posted. A tweedy twin with a strat on the neck pickup for sure.

Short list of AXE amps that get the Jimi tone right, if I recall correctly:

The Plexis
59 bassman cranked
65 bassman
Superverb

One could make a case for the Dumble as well.

Your link to SRV's rig shows a Vibroverb. I've got to check those out. Never played that model...:encouragement:

 

[USMC_Trev]

It's called the Vibrato Verb in the Axe-FX...

Drive = FET Boost, Amp = Div/13 FT37 Hi (Input Drive 3 - 4, Cut and Bright Switch ON), Cab = TAF_Mars4x12_MIX_ROOM (Preamp: HQ, Tape 50us + a bit of drive & post eq), Reverb & Delay in parallel.

 

[jlynnb1]

probably 10-20 amps in the Axe that will get you there, many of which have already been mentioned.

Deluxe Reverb with a 2x12 UR cab.

Strat bridge pup with the tone rolled down pretty low. There is something special that happens with a strat bridge pup when you roll the tone down. There is a sweet spot where the tone gets real vocal.
