I'm looking for something that has a good, organic blues tone when the
amp is used without pedals, but won't flap out when a Tube Screamer is
added to the mix.
I had one of these amps before, with a Naylor SD50. It seemed to lack
some definition.
Anyone tried a Blues Deluxe with one of the new Jensesn C12s? How
about a Celestion V-30? I've also got an old Jensen P12Q laying around
from a 50's Deluxe.
BTW, the original, stock, Fender-spec'd Eminence was cool sounding at
living room volumes, but terrible at stage levels.
Thanks.

How does the V30 do on the more organic-blues tones? I've got a few in other
amps, so I might swap and give it a shot, thanks Rick.
Any idea how the Naylor Alltone 1250 compares, sonically, to the Naylor Special
Design 50 from the early 90s? The SD50 was billed as a C12N-like replacement.
Maybe it was the tubes in the amp, or maybe that amp just wasn't quite "it", but
it was fairly unimpressive.

Well shit, Rick. With your active pickups vs. my old-school single coils, you
leave me with no clear and concise direction here. I guess I'll just slap a V30
n and see how it does. Good thing I have a few laying around, eh?

And if the V30 doesn't get it, I may have to try the Naylor.
OTOH, If it's real close to the Jensen C12Q, I might also consider one of the
new ones. Anyone used one of the new Jensens in anything?
What is this Alltone, Naylor never heard about ?
Who put them in their products ?
Tahnks in advance for that info
