Deluxe Reverb VS Hot Rod Deluxe: The Ultimate Shootout

The Hot Rod Deluxe or the Deluxe Reverb? Which one would you choose? That is what I am trying to assess in this episode. I own both of these amps and want to determine which one will serve me best for what I do in my home studio. In order to figure which will work best for me, I have a series of tests that I'll be putting both amps to. We'll listen to both amps in a mix, in order to simulate a band context. We'll also listen to the amps with their spring reverb, the amps' gain and clean tones with five different guitars.
