1962 Bluesbreaker

John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers playing with Eric Clapton is what gave the 1962 ‘bluesbreaker’ its name. This 2×12” combo reissue has the legendary deep blues tone created by the GZ34 valve rectifier, similar to the JTM45. However, with two re-issued Celestion Greenback speakers its sonic characteristics differentiate it and give it that recognisable sound. This 30W classic may not shout the loudest but its vintage tone means its personality stands out from the crowd.

Artist Profile

Lee Kiernan

Some things are just worth the wait and this was case when IDLES released their first album in 2017. Although the band had been making music for a few years, it was their critically acclaimed debut, ‘Brutalism’, that led to the band’s breakthrough. Since then they’ve opened for The Maccabees and Foo Fighters and been nominated for Best Breakthrough Act at the Brit Awards. Their sudden surge in popularity has allowed the band to start touring the world and we can’t wait to see what they get up to next.
