Mesa Mark VII head with Schecter USA 4x12 loaded with Celestion Cream Back neos and Splawn Small Block X pattern.

OG Carvin Legacy VL212 combo loaded with V30 and Green back and also into my home made oversize ported 1x12 with A Celestion V type.
 
Not familiar with Cornford but that’s a perfect assortment of amps right there. Only things missing are an AC15 and a Fender w/Reverb
Thanks man! 🤘🏼
The Cornford is a RK100. Very thick, robust sounding amp with excellent low to mid gain tones.
Goes beast mode with a boost and hits like a truck.

Added a Herbert Mk3:

Hate to say it: I prefer the VHX tone-wise based on my short comparison, might be due to the KT77s vs 6L6s in my VHX.
 
Could you describe what it is you prefer about the VHX?
I've had the VHX for 3 years as my main amp and so am very used to my settings with the Herbert "Shape." Just nitpicks on my end, and I am on 6L6s while the Herbert is on KT77s. Not in the mood to spend the money on more 6L6s just to find out if it changes my opinion. The Herbert is still awesome, just more "modern" than the settings I've been accustomed to on the VHX.
 
Updated. I think that is all of them.

Nice mix of tan pants and camo cargos. Desert camo?
 
After seeing these in post#199 I had an eye out for one of these Atlas 4x12. I was told the bracing is the same as a '68 Marshall, take look...it signed in blood, an obvious sign it will sound killer haha..
Had the time today for an update. Cab sounds brutal and tight. Brighter than my creamback cab and more upper mids. No chance the harness will ever be an issue, pretty old school. Tomorrow she goes up against the Orange PPC412.
