Hughes & Kettner Access, Marshall JMP-1, Rockton Pirahna or the ADA MP-1 for the preamp. For effects I'd suggest the G-Major 2 or keep the GSP1101 and use it for effects only.

That guitar is gorgrous and I'd keep it if it played well. That being said, I have 3 purple guitars (2 Wolfgangs and an Axis) and dig purple, so I may be biased!!

Love my Street Rod combo! Congrats!!

I have several of each and you can't go wrong with either one. It really comes down to personal preference. My tastes slightly favor the Wolfs, but it's close and I love the Axis' also!

What about the Fractal FX8?

I used one for a number of years paired with a Mesa 2:90 and it sounded killer!

When I got my 5150 III 100 watt head I played a gig that night with it. Wasn't hard to dial in and sounded killer right out of the box!!

I've had my 100w head since 2008, played 100s of shows with it and I've never had a problem with it.

5150 III 100 watt if you want to get nice cleans for jazz in addition to metal tones.

I believe the channel volumes may impact the signal level going to the loop. Try running the channel volumes lower and the master volume higher.

The Engl Steve Morse is a beast of an amp. I owned a Powerball and didn't care for it. A buddy has a Steve Morse and it is an awesome amp!!

I just picked up a Street Rod combo and LOVE it! Huge sounding and sounds like my Quick Rod head. Can't believe how big sounding that 112 combo is. Mine has a Creamback in it and it sounds killer. Highly recommended.

Congrats!! Love mine!!

KISS Love Gun

I've had my 100 watt head since 2008 and never had a problem, and that's after probably about 250 gigs with it.

Awesome!! I also love your playing in Lights/Journey Tribute!

I wish VH would grab Michael Starr/Ralph Saenz and do a tour.......

Originally the 5150 III shipped with Sovtek 6L6WXTs in the power section and a mix of Sovtek (WC and LPS) and EH preamp tubes, before switching to all JJs. Personally, I think the amp sounds much better (for what I like) with the orginal Sovtek/EH combination. Also, every 5150 III I've tried...

Doug is currently playing in the Vegas show Raiding the Rock Vault. Not sure if that's why he left WS or not, but it may give him a steady gig with no travel that may be appealing with a family at home.

I previously used the original G Major and had issues (encoders and freezing). I switched to the GM2 several years ago and it's been rock solid for me. Mine has had zero issues and I gig regularly with it.
