barrymclark Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Closest guitarist comes first, You may get your's first, but I since I'm his unofficial quality assurance representative, I'll have to demo it prior to shipping... That's fine. Break in the speaker and I require a tone report after your hearing comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoslate Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I could go for that lat 50s Bandmaster, too. Could have had one a couple of months ago...for $1300. Friend had it in his shop. Played it a couple of times. Everything original, including, apparently, the tubes. Beautiful creamy, warm tone, and a tremelo deep as the Marianas Trench. The blonde tolex was a mess...looked like it'd served as a counter at Starbuck's for about fifty years. Anyway, Tatum couldn't sell it, and the price kept coming down. Decided one night just to buy the thing. Went in a couple of days later, after the amp had sat for about six months, and, of course, it was gone....

koula901 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Amp wish list, hmmm, let's see . . . . that would be a Two Rock Gainmaster 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurph1 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 The thread Mark posted about the Mesa Boogie 5:50 got me thinking about an amp Christmas list. What amps would I have in my dream man-cave? In no particular order: I'd keep my Cube. Just sounds too good to let go. Rivera Jazz Suprema 55 Nocturne Blondeshell Trillium Empyrean Polytone MiniBrute IV (prefer an older one) Gibson GA-40(or 42 whichever) KBP Starlite Mesa-Boogie (TransAtlantic, 5:50 or Mark IV) Carvin Belair VHT Standard 18 Little Dawg Wonderdawg Off the top of my head, that's my list. Short as it may be. haha. Well let's see the long list..LOL..As for me, probably a Carr Rambler, or a Juke combo.. either one of those would be great for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjsanders Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 got everything i need or would want. for a wishlist, i'd get this, sell it and invest in a nice hedge fund, maybe cop some nifty CDOs or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I just want one amp and speaker combo that does "it".. One that gets cleans that are fat and warm, has shimmer, chime, and a 3d quality and doesn't break up doesn't matter how loud. A gain that goes from just getting fury to a full on crunch and a saturated gain that doesnt loose definition. I have all those things but theyre split up into about 5 different amps and its annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koula901 Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 What happened to the ToneKing Metropolitan? It must not have rocked your boat at PSP, eh?? That's still a nice amp - for me, the 2Rock is just a little bit better, and a little bit lighter, and, maybe I like the voicing a bit more. both great amps.

Wolfi Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 My favourite amps are Rivera R 55 and Fender Prosonic. I now use a HOOK Captain 6L6 100 W Top (great handmade amp from the Netherlands). Last week I aquired a RIVERA Clubster 25 (1 x 10). I love the sound of the clean channel. I don't feel to convinient with the sound of channel 1. For me it's a bit to "hissy", especially when I pull the boost knob. Without the boost, I miss gain. Yesterday I plugged a MI Audio Crunch Box into the amp. I used it with the clean channel and it sounded awesome. Maybe I leave it like this and use Channel 1 only for the crunchy sounds. That would make a 3 channel amp out of this little monster .

rjsanders Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 on a more cereal note (& lotsa notes), i could have (via "long-term loan") a custom Krinard (Two-Rock) based on D. Lindley's 70's Dumbles a custom Krinard (Two-Rock) prototype of the TS-1 a Bruno tweed deluxe combo w/Celestion Blue a Dr. Z Z-Wreck & cab others but don't bother, cuz i have: & that does it for me. on top of that (or rather next to) are a stupifying great group of Heritage amps, incl. Colonial, Briton II, & Victory honestly, i feel a little sheepish having all this sonic greatness around. but i'll cope (happy to share w/anyone in the area who wants to stop by) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjsanders Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Gotta say..I was playing through my old Gibby amp this morning..No pedals..Just guitar, cable and amp..3 hours later I was still jammin!! can well imagine. friend of mine serviced amps & collected old Gibsons among others (except the 6QB5 ones - he hated EL84s. crazy, but there ya go)...he had every model from the 50's and quite a few from the 60's. anyway he said the cabs of all the old combos were made of redwood...maybe that's part of the secret sauce. love those old Gibbies...
