Well, this will be my first Ampeg. I just bought a 1960 Rocket R-12 from a Reverb seller. It was advertised as a 1959 but the serial number starts with 001. It has a re-coned Jensen P12R. From what I could find, that's the original speaker but maybe not the best choice for this amp. I have a perfectly good box for storing this speaker, lol. I'd like to hear from you folks about your choice for a better replacement.
The tube complement is two 6SL7, two 6V6 and a 5Y3. I like raw crunchy overdriven plug-straight-into-the-amp-with-no-pedals sound and I like sparkling cleans, too.
What say you? Thanks!
