The item I was after is now gone. Sold last week :( . What matters is "the friends made along the way"...right? Gimme a silver lining here!
 
Sorry you missed the gear. BUt here, I'll help boost your count anyways. Lots of other gear for sale that you might want :)

What do you think the best high gain amp of all time is? I don want an amp to mask things. I want it to either reward me for playing clean or punish me for being sloppy. My favorite is the EVH 5150 EL34 100wS. Most brutal and unforgiving amp Ive ever played (and I've played a bunch). This is just my opinion. I don't think other people are wrong when they give an incorrect answer :D

I'm really not qualified to answer. My hands on experience is too small. Some of my favorite tones have come from form of JCM800 to my understanding.
 
Marshall amps are my fav, however...

Behold the Mesa JP-2C




I have Marshall flavored Engl and Bogner, but my JP-2C and Diezel VHX work great when I want something different.

This is where I expect to be before long. That's what I get for lurking since 2010 instead of building an account. Figured I better change that.
 
I too have missed out on gear because of the post count. Maybe that is a good thing. I got active again on guitar as I ran into some big health issues and it has been an awesome distraction for me. The gear, the speaker and pickup sound clips. It never ends!

Most times I read but don't post because I feel I don't know enough to be giving an opinion.

That's where I'm usually stuck. I've had 10+ years touring as a guitar tech and monitor engineer, played in a handful of bands in most of the states, and anyone I've admired professionally has stuck to the same philosophy: observe everything, err on keeping your mouth closed, and be ready to learn at all times. That's my forum presence in a nutshell.
 
Twas an original run USA made 100w Archon. I had to enact plan B and buy one from Musicians Friend. It arrives today as a matter of fact. With friends like them......

Well, at least you found us and now you are here :dunno:

That's no fun guys :lol:

What amps are you guys runnin'?
 
Thanks for asking!
I have a 2005? VHT (Fryette) 50cl pittbull with eq, a dsl40cr, dsl5cr, and a class 5.

Cabs VM 425B G12C, 1960 G12vintage/P50e, G12M65 1x12 (Friedman)

I was actually thinking of starting a new 50cl thread when I'm not at work. I've owned it 20 years and I'm having fun getting the bug again. It always seemed kind if dry until i dimed it into my new PS100.

It arrived. It's not in "great condition". It is, frankly, beat to sh*t. Also missing the pictured foot switch AND..most importantly? Missing all 4 f*cking power tubes. Man, f*ck these clowns.

Even if I pop 4 tubes in here, I have no idea if it'll run.

Holy crap dude. That is completely unacceptable. Obviously take lots of pics and the box too. File a claim asap. That sucks man. Sorry :(
