So...yeah. I would totally use a Chameleon and pretty much any power amp again. Killer unit that I should have never sold.
 
Damn, I really feel much better now after seeing a few of these lists.

Fender Champ - long gone
Yamaha combo - long gone
Marshall JCM800 - been gone
Fender Twin - stolen
Mesa Dual Recto - sold
THD - garage
Dr. Z - garage
Bogner Uberschall - 4 Sale
Diezel VH4 - 4 Sale
Marshall JCM800 - bought another and now gone
Marshall Super Bass - somewhere here
Elmwood M90 - 4 Sale
Marshall JMP MKII - sold
Diezel Herbert - guarded by my Rottweiler
Splawn Nitro - still in the box and 4 Sale
Fortin Bones - still testing

Just need a Mark IIC+ now to complete the full house and end up back where I started, almost. I just thought I was nuts, but not near as bad as most here....Makes me feel better about maybe ordering a Triaxis and Mesa 2:90 power amp :thumbsup:

What models ? Thanx :)

There is no way I could remember everything I have owned since 1970 when my father gave me my first amp, that I still own.

Maz 18 Jr. Combo w/ 1x12
THD Univalve

Gorilla practice amp
Laney solid state 100 watt
JCM900
5150 II
SLO100
Carvin Legacy
JCM800x
1959slp
Reinhardt Storm

Every once in a while, I really miss the SLO. I might miss the 1959slp, but the Storm gets pretty close.

There is a good chance the Storm will be replaced by an AxeFX. The convenience just makes sense. I just hope it isn't one of those things I regret.

I've actually never once sold an amp. I kept all of them and modded all of em!

(MM=Mercury Magnetics Trannys/custom mods)

Marshall AVT50 1x12
Peavey 5150 II (MM)
Rocktron Vendetta (MM)
Peavey Windsor (MM)
Mesa/Boogie Dual Rec/Rack (MM)
Roland Jazz Chorus 120H
Peavey Penta (FJA Mods)

I will soon be the proud owner of a Fortin Natas as well... as soon as Mike starts taking orders!

I was never really legitimately happy with any of the Marshalls. I prefer my Peavey Windsor to any Marshall I've ever played. I actually prefer Peavey products to most. Anyone who bags on em doesn't know how to set em right. Throw a few mods in those suckers and they're up there with the best.

Cabs:

5150 4x12
Mesa Recto 4x12
Mills Acoustics Afterburner 4x12 B G12K100 x V30
Avatar Contemporary 4x12 (Hellatone 30 x Hellatone 60)

I think I might be missing a few, but I have access to a few JCM 800's, DSL, TSL and a few other marshalls.

I am hoping to get a modeler to add to the tube amps I have and be done for a bit. I'd like to own a diezel and another bogner..... but I'm content with what I have.

if I had to include pedals, I'd be up a creek. I spent more on snake oil and garbage than I care to admit. I flew through a bunch of pickups and have found what works best for me.
 
mine is simple by comparison.

Tempo. a little solid state thing I think sears sold for a while. mid 70's ?
Radio Schack 50 watt PA. that I ran into the Temp front end. For a while then smoke. :lol: :LOL:
Gibson solid state thing

Fawn 2204 non cascaded though like a 76 should have kept it.

I started hitting the forums in around 1998/1999 and you can see the effect. It did take me a while to find a the British Marshall sound I was looking for, found that in the 2553 silver jubilee. I am very happy with my current stable of amps. No plans to buy any more, I am considering selling one, that may be the Fender Bandmaster Reverb, we will see....
