I have 2, however the Fender 150 should count as 1/2 since it's a piece of crap.

The amp I use daily is the AD30VT.

I said 10+ only because my GNX3000 gives me access to 43 fairly decent amp models (increases exponentially if I include "Warp" patches which let me blend characteristics of 2 different amps. Current fav is a Vox AD30/Fender 65 Deluxe mash-up :D ). :master:

In real life I have 3. Peavey Bandit 112. Ol' Yammy 2x12 100 Watt combo and a 30W acoustic. I also have a Peavey XR400 4 channel PA with 12" PA cab/horns which I can use as a 100W "stack" with the GNX3K in a pinch ;)

I'll break down and get a real tube amp one day - or two. Something bluesy and definitely something Fender Deluxe Reverb-ish.

Oh, and thanks for this :poke:

Two, once again listed below, although the Peavey has gathered dust since the arrival of my AD30VT.

Uno, unless the Boss headphone amph counts. My boy has one now too, a Fullerton to go with his Fullerton.

Do modelers count as an amph? If so put me down for 13 in house and one more on the way soon.

I won't put my official number into the poll until we sort out the modeler business.

lets say if it's bigger than a .. I don't know.. a shoe box (wtf :messedup: ?) it counts, no pedals though, that can be another poll.

I've only got three production amps right now: three VJ heads (just bought two yesterday). I have about 10-15 working homebrews in various stages of completion. Most don't have face plates or cabs, but they work and sound good. I really have to work on my cabinet building skillz.

I probably have parts for another 4 or 5.

I voted 2:

VOX AD30VT
Fender Champion 600

but I realize that I should have voted 3 (or 2 1/2) due to

VOX Tonelab

I use that even more often than the other two as I often need to practice quietly.

2 for me, though the horrid little Fender I have shouldn't really count. I love my AD50VT, but I only use a couple of the models and none of the effects. Shrug? I'm thinking a smallish tube amp like a Blues Jr. would be more like an amp that someone like me would have. And I'm still waiting for the 1/2 watt Blackheart to come out.

I only use a couple of the models & none of the effects on my AD30VT as well.

My Radiator makes enough of their own gravy, I can't see adding chorus, delay, or reverb to it.

i haven't....was thinking i would like a head unit only and run it into a cabinet (which i don't have yet either)....i have always wanted an extremely low watt tube amp (especially since i now live in a townhouse) so i am looking at options. Have even thought of building one myself....

ww Yes, I know that you have thought about building one. It has a two speaker outs, one wjich cuts the internal speaker & one which leaves it on. It even has headphones out.

But it uses a 12AX7 as a power tube (12AU& as preamp).

Yes, I know that you have thought about building one. I don't know whether the Little Lanelei has a speaker out so that you can use it as a head or not.
yeah i'm still thinking of building one...divorce kinda got in the way...but i've been thinking about it again lately :whatever:

I have 3. A suprisingly fragile Mesa Boogie Maverick, Roland Bolt 60 (a Roland with tubes!), and an original Fender Blues Deluxe. I really only use the Mesa even though it's never working 100%. The Roland doesn't sound all that great and the Fender sounds good on it's own but I'm a pedal geek and it doesn't play nice with some of them.

Which is your #1 Brian?

Are those tapes of you playing behind all those amphs?

When are you going to release the

Of late (I've sorta semi-retired the '66 Super Reverb, which is probably my over-all fave, from gigging, though I break her out for special occasions), the 1960's Sunn 200S head into one of the following:

80's Risson 4x12:

'60's Kustom 1x15:

http://a434.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/79/l_3bb53bfbb7da950d9b088f9c216fe949.jpg

The Sunn is actually a bass head technically, and I've used it as such as well.


Are those tapes of you playing behind all those amphs?

Naw, law books, that's the library at my office.


When are you going to release the

Komplete Krashpad

for the masses?

Haha, that'd best be kept under wraps. Mass hysteria might ensue. They have a digital copy at Area 51, I'm told, but only to be used for defensive purposes in national security emergencies.
