I'm sure that Louis Vuitton would sell for a few grands on the blues dentistz page.

This is my #1.

It started as a Tremoverb 2x12 combo. I ordered a custom headshell for it from Mesa.
I also have the KMD and Champion 600 in this one. The KMD is usually slaved to the Mesa's preamp via a stereo pedal. I also run it with my SansAmp used as a preamp for awesome Ampeg SVT/VT/V series tones, and the KMD itself is pretty much a polite JCM800 with more gain.

new (old) amp day!

these seem to be fairly scarce so i couldn't come up with too much info but its an early 70s Yamaha YTA-95 closed back 90w solid state 2x12 combo.
it kinda sounds like if you took a JC120 and swapped out the chorus and distortion for tremolo and 'WAW WAW', but maybe a little brighter and more dynamic? fucking RAD. the verb and trem sound insanely good.
i got it from the original owner who doesn't even play guitar and it's been sitting under the cover most of it's life... the pots definitely need cleaning but it's 100% functional and really quiet otherwise.
and it was crazy cheap, i am stoked on this.

That whole amp looks awesome.
I only know of the kind that has rotary speaker horns. I'd love to try that at some point.

Where'd you score those knobs?
They look like big versions of the old boss/roland type, is that right?
The knob brand is Philmore and the model number is 3030... .92" dia /.62" high

it sounds so fucking good, can't believe I'd never tried a hiwatt style amp before now.

I am still to pop that cherry on a real Hiwatt circuit.
A mate loaned me one of their new practice lunch boxes and it is fucking fail town for toanz.
I am very grateful he let me borrow it though.

yeah I've never played a real one either but goddamn man...the low end this thing pushes without being woofy is ridiculous. Like everything I play has that 'prayer to god' intro chunk to it on the low strings.
