I`ve used Peavey 112, Fender Silverface Twin and Silverface Deluxe Reverb so far and after using the Tonemaster Deluxe for Steel and Tele I`m very happy with it, considering to buy a second one.
Great Amp, sounds right and has enough headroom for me on any stage i`m on. |

Interesting. 170 hits and it seems no one else has yet tried this amp? I've got a suspicion it would be a good stage amp for small to medium venues mic'd through the mains. |

I played guitar through a Tonemaster Deluxe in a music store and I liked what I heard. I too am curious to hear whether or not it has enough headroom for a medium sized room pedal steel gig. They weigh 23 lbs, the Quilter Mach 3 weighs 21 lbs. At 200 watts, I would bet that the Quilter would be fine for a pedal steel, but I am not sure which one would sound best for a 6 string guitar gig. I'll be curious to hear more about them, hopefully more people will chime in on this post. |

The TM Deluxe has an XLR out w/ cab simulation, no mic needed. I have a TM Deluxe in my bedroom with the power set to 12W and the volume at 2.8, at 22w and same volume ( 2.8 ) it would be way too loud for me. _________________ "Faith don't need no second opinion." |

I have both the TM Deluxe and Twin.
Deluxe is good for guitar but hands down the Twin is better for steel. _________________ MSA 12 String E9th/B6th Universal.

Been playing a deluxe almost a year with lapsteel. Plug into the vibrato channel 2 volume on 5 with a volume pedal. Like it a lot, Works nice with a delay and a fuzz if I want to. Love carrying it. Am completely happy with it for lap steel. The twin is too large physically for what I need but may be better for pedal steel for some. Would not want to be involved if the deluxe wasnt big enough. |

It's my main rig for both Tele and steel in the Ronstadt Revue. We're always miked and I have no headroom issues. For fly dates I'm now using the new UA Dream pedal, which is a great knockoff of a 65 DR in a double pedal-sized box. I store one preset for steel and the other for Tele. _________________ www.JimCohen.com

Jim, it's the Tonemaster Deluxe right? Not the Tonemaster Twin? |

Thanks Jim. You've confirmed my suspicion. I am always mic'd also. Stage volume is low. |
