Favorite Amp

[sgmezei]

I know about heavy amps haha. I have my workhorse that has never let me down. A mesa boogie Rectoverb 1 12" combo. It is 82lbs. It sounds awesome though. I have NEVER used the rectified distortion setting hahaha. I know there are nicer amps out there but this has always had my back. I have gigged it the past 5 years and still have the original tubes in it.

I just built a weber 5e3 deluxe and love it. Not super versatile though. I love the mesa transatlantic series and the lunch box head weighs nothing and sounds amazing.

Still searching for my ideal fender amp. Building two others right now to hopefully find the perfect circuit.

Just checked out the weber amp kits site. Lots of great kits that seem reasonably do-able for a begginer in this topic. I'd love to build a 5e3. Thats the champ model right cause thats the one i want?

5e3 is tweed deluxe, 5f1 is champ

Thats the one. I think I may be able to convince my buddy to fund a build project for one of those Weber standalone reverb units!
I'm wondering if the price is a little cheaper since the cabinets aren't included right now.

I have only owned 2 amps, and still own both. A Bill M modded Blues Junior and a '67 Bassman. Both give their own unique tone; the only thing I could see replacing the Bassman is a D style amp, i.e. Ceriatone or Carol Ann

I'm gassing for a Dr. Z Maz 18 in the worst way. Just the sound and touch I've always dreamed of, just need to buckle down and save some bucks. Oh, and hide my credit card.

Traynor YCV-40WR, Fender Super Champ XD, And a Orange Tiny Terror. But, fav go to amp is the Tiny Terror for it's simplicity in design, construction, and sound. Love it. GAS is bad on the credit card.

I only have one amp now, an Ampeg Reverberocket 6L6 combo that I stuck a Warehouse Guitar speaker in.  This amp does everything I want really; it sounds great for country, blues and rock.  I don't play any metal so I'm fine with this.

But don't let me lie to you.  My GAS is ubiquitous.

Amazing what you find on the internuts. I like to think tiny little ants are eating my brain causing GAS. I never would have thought that.

I wonder what kind of GAS he's talking about..

[jtn191]

I've got GAS. both kinds. It hurts myself and others

I gotta vote for my vintage reproduction Hiwatt DR-504.  Talk about taking pedals nicely.

I mostly jam an old superdrive 18 (mine is a 1x12 combo with oxblood grillcloth) Very versatile little amp.

Of all the amps I've had, I'm most satisfied with my Mesa Stiletto Ace. As of late, I've been GASing for some Vox action as well. *sigh*
