210 Sixty-Five & 110 RD 50

Joel DC

I came across a 210 Sixty-Five in a pawn shop a coupla months ago. I was trying to get rid of a Peavey 5150 2x12 for a lighter rig.(heh heh) Needless to say, I did what I hadta do to walk out with it. I had a 212 One-Thirty w/ EV's that I traded off 20 years ago, so this was my second MM amp. I started watching some YT videos and saw some 110 RD's on there. I started researching these a little closer and decided I "needed" one. Ended up buying a clean-looking one off of Ebay . Yep, if anyone around here was watching it, I'm the guy that bought it. This is the perfect "old man" gigging amp. The weight of a Princeton Reverb amp but the output of a Bassman 50. I know I don't have to tell you guys about the tone. Now I find myself "needing" a 112 RD now.

I just bought a 210 65 from a pawn shop. Very good condition and seems to be all original. This is my second MM amp as I traded off a 212 130 many years ago. I currently own 210 Sixty-Five, Fender DRRI,
Pro Jr., Concert(Rivera),'70 Bassman,Gibson Falcon,'77 Marshall 1987,JTM612, 4x12,2x12's...stuff. Usually plug a Les Paul or Tele into these, ocassionally a Strat.

Yeah, I was trying to down size and walked into a pawnshop,saw this MM210 65 and all my dreams of downsizing was replaced with dreams of finding every MM amp I can. The bad part is I don't know why. I'm only playing in a local gospel band now and the 110 RD is perfect for my needs but the RD 112 is now on my list of necessities. ...and this chair and this ashtray and that's all I need...

Sad, but we all do it. I only have two and one of them is blowed up! I've just lost interest in fixing it since it's a 130 and gawd knows we don't need THAT kind of power anymore. I keep it around for photo ops for people who want pics of stuff. Mike

yep, your right, we don't need 130HD's anymore. Now, why am I trying to figure out what I can trade to my friend that has a 130HD out in his shed. I got some tube heads now that I hardly use but that doesn't stop me from wanting another.

Well, I have been using Fender Mustang guitar amplifier for the past few months, and all my friends appreciate my choice, which makes me feel happy for making the right purchase.
Thanks!
