What 5 Production Amps would you buy if you won the lottery?

True "production" amps. A-List would be -

Mint '79 Marshall JMP 2204. Second amp I ever owned.
MGL HG 50
Wizard MTL-MKII
Fryette Ultra Lead (Version II)
Ground Zero Hellion

Mods, non production and production amps B-List...

Hermanson!!! Frankly this amp is the one that has me gassing the most these days.
Monomyth Skeleton Key
Friedman Steve Stevens
Dover DA-50
HI Watt Super Hi 50
 
Do you mean current production?

If not, I'd choose:

A vintage Marshall JMP

H&K Triamp 3

Cornford Hellcat

I'd also re-buy a VHT/Fryette D60 and Fender Prosonic
 
These threads are always fun!

Diezel VH-4
Bogner XTC 20th EL-34
EVH 100W Stealth
Friedman BE-100 DLX
Mesa JP-2C
 
Current production

Wizard MTL-MKII
Diezel VH4

Matamp GT120

Friedman Deluxe BE100

Fender BF Bassman

Production amps? I took that to mean currently in production.
 
If I had that much money, right now just to order one amp, I honestly think I would contact James Peters and see if he would just make me a 2 channel amp. I've talked to him forever and he would know what I want more than anyone most likely. I wouldn't even care how long it took. I actually hope to do this someday.

My bassist in my doom band has a Green (Matamp) GT150 and an Orange AD200. The Matamp is a much better build than the Orange.

Perhaps this was an American one? They had problems with them, and have since cut ties.

Not sure, it was purchased from a Spanish shop, but no idea where it was made. But yeah, if Usa ones had problems than it might have been one of those

There was a time period peters was well respected around here and it seemed everyone had one on order. I mean no respect at all to Rhodes, but I much prefer the sound and tone of Peters’ amps. It’s sad you don’t see more of them around. I’d gladly try one out on the used market but I have no intention to order a new one.
