Lynyrd Skynyrd in a box? Mace preamp.

[Saul Goodman]

Get your Rebel Flag, some JD, and Marlborough Reds ready.

Skynyrd's crew hated that Peavey gear. The tube amps constantly blew up, totally unroadworthy. The bass gear was solid, it's said.

I played thru a Mace for a few shows. It had EV speakers in it. FOH guy threatened to pour gas on it and burn it if he saw it on the backline again. Next show I was sporting a Boogie.

Hopefully it was a Boogie coliseum head.  😁 

 

I watched that video earlier today.  I want that pedal if it ever comes out.  

There is a Mace at my house.  It is fun to crank, but not to move.  There are cars that weigh less.

Waiting for the new Rhett Shull video, "What is the Peavey Mace Sound?"

Fuck Rhett Shull.

The other guitar player in the band (1970 something) had a 2x12 Mace combo.  Heavy, loud and rocked. Definitely its own tone. Solid state preamp and six 6L6 output tubes. The built in phaser was kinda weird, but it was the 70s.

Yep, “Call Me the Breeze.” Ick.

My first amp was a Peavey Mace combo.  How I talked my mom into buying that heavy sumbitch for me still amazes me.
