SUHR HOMBRE VS RIFT BROWNFACE
Hey guys!
I currently own a Rift PR35 Brownface amp, but im curious how it compares to a Suhr Hombre.
The previous owner changed the original WGS G12C speaker for a Celestion Creamback on my amp.
1. Could they produce the same kind of overdrive when pushed? My Rift PR35 (with a 1/2 power switch down to 18w) stays pretty clean, and doesnt really go in to that creamy sweet overdrive.
2. How would the G12C sound different from the Creamback?
3. Found a used Hombre, would it make sense two have both or are they too similar?
SPECIFICATIONS RIFT
Preamp valves: 1 x 12AT7, 2 x 12AX7, 1 x 7025
Poweramp valves: 2 x 6V6GT (2x6L6 on PR35 and PR50)
Valve Rectifier: 1 x GZ34
1/2 Power Switch
Reverb and Bias Tremolo
High-Quality Transformers
Handwired circuitry
WGS G12C Speaker
SUHR HOMBRE
SPEAKER: 12" Celestion® V-Type
PREAMP TUBES: 3x 12AX7

Don’t know the Rift but the Suhr is a decent amp. Stock they carry a crappy Celestion V type though.. I think? But with a decent speaker it shreds big time
