My SVT is a 1970 (I own since about 76...loaded it into my truck by myself..)!
It turned out a fog machine came on and it was behind my amp on a rack of equipment for the stage lights. The fan in the SVT was sucking in the smoke and it was hitting the hot tubes.....making the smoke worse. I said over the mic was it supposed to be smokey like this and no one answered but it did calm down. On the "She's The Right Girl" video you can still see the smoke through the lights........I told the sound guy someone whould have warned me! |
I see the smoke! Thats funny. I'd be nervous too. I'm doing the micro amp thing these days...but the SVT would almost be worth the hassle. I've only played thru one of those once at a massive pig roast where everything was already set up for us...just had to bring our guitars. It was a newer one but it sounded great. Thats pretty cool you have an original, vintage setup...if I lived in NJ area I'd come see you guys play just to hear that thing!
