Guide to Taming a Blues Deluxe Amplifier

Updates:
I made this 23 second video on a break at work just to show the device in case someone with a Blues Deluxe could use it.

The iPhone audio cuts out in the middle when I her hit the strings because the amp is so loud. With the tamer in, you can crank the preamp and still get distortion at a more manageable volume.

The Blues Deluxe has a linear volume pot that’s sensitive at lower volume, basically making it all or nothing with little in between. This device helps give you a more usable range.

It is my understanding that an attenuator is a device that comes between the amp and the speaker and reduces the power going to speaker. This is just a volume knob in the effects loop, and you could use a volume pedal to the same effect.


For years people told me my #fenderbluesdeluxe amp was too loud...finally...problem solved! I get the tones I want, and it doesn't knock pictures off the walls...unless I need it to!
