So we've had many Electrics (obviously), Acoustics, Basses and even Tuners.. (and recently worst amps lol)

 

So lets see those great amps out there..

 

I started years ago with a Crate practice amp, it was rubbish.. Then I got a Marshall MG DFX 15 which I loved and still have.. Since then I have had a few bigger amps ( a Line 6 (first gen)and a couple of valve state Marshalls) but never really found one that justified its price and im not a gigging player so cant really justify a massive JCM 800 or something like that so I sold those off.. But then about a year ago I found my dream amp cos it was a good price (£250) and its a Marshall MG15 HFX and is what they call a Microstack so a 15 watt head with two 10" cabinets.. AWESEOME!! So now I have a stack amp (sort of :)).. What amps do you have?

 

Full spec here (gone up in price since I bought it)

Yep, that's my Cry Baby, MXR Carbon Copy, and Blues Driver.

 

The Deluxe reverb has two channels - clean and vibrto, the vibrato is footswitchable for reverb and vibrato. The Frontman is also two channel - clean and drive (also footswitchable). The bass amp is a nice little 10 watt practice amp.

Yes same here (well maybe 18 years).. Still sounds and works great.. Even though ive recently been thinking of trying a new one and seeing if theres any difference.. (like theres a new Joe B one coming out).

Not a up to date pic. Now I'm running two AFD 100s in stereo now (wet/dry)

Frikken sweet.. How loud can you turn that up before it gets too much for the room? I only live in a small flat but cant even turn my small amps much past 4 or 5 on the master volume before it starts getting silly..

 

Does anyone have one that goes up to 11 then :P :)

How about this, granted this is more than the thread asks for but here we go....

 

Most of my pedals; I have others stored away in boxes like the HM2, several A/B switches but these are the main ones minus the talkbox.

Are some of those pedals analogue? Even though I like a basic setup I hear that the analoge pedals sound really good but they are sooo expensive.. Are they worth the extra?

One amp I built. It is out on the road with a touring band right now though. Variation of Princeton tweed.

I have another one I built like the blonde one in the first pic but it's red. I just have not uploaded any pics to photobucket of it.

EDIT: Here are the only pics of it that I have uploaded

I only play at home and for myself, so I don't need anything huge, expensive, or something to blow the windows out. I bought this Line 6 Spider IV 15 watt amp. It's got plenty of effects, models, and an onboard tuner. It's very easy to use. For a samll amp it can really crank out the sound.
