Very nice work. I like all three. Bassman has nice drive and the Express has that mojo crunch. Craftsmenship looks nice.

Re: Rocket, Express, Bassman pix and demo
Here's a clip with a Tele. Excuse the single coil pickup noise; I wasn't paying attention to where I was standing!

Hmmmm..... That's a close one. The Express sure likes the Tele. The Bassman sure sounded good too.
Re: Rocket, Express, Bassman pix and demo
In the first vids, I agree the bassman was the best. The TWs seemed a little harsh. In the last vid, with the SC, the Express sounded best to me, the Rocket #2 and the bassman last. Interesting, and nice playing.
Re: Rocket, Express, Bassman pix and demo
It's interesting how well the Express likes the Tele. I'd put the Bassman in last place with the Tele. I think it is a toss up between the Rocket and the Express. With Express last, it benefits from the halo effect. Regardless, most players would eat their hearts out to get the tone you've got in any one of these. Nice job on the Joe Walsh material, too.

Good to hear other peoples builds and compare to what you are used to hearing from your own amps. I like the Express the best, but I know I'm biased because I like my own Express above the Rocket and Liverpool.
The Bassman sounded good especially in a guitar only scenario like this, i'm guessing the Express would really shine in a band-mix scenario and not lose anything once you layer other instruments in.
great looking and sounding amps.
