Have You Bought Any Amp Heads / Combos & Cabs In 2025?

[Genghis]

I picked up a Crab Dragon earlier this year.

Just a few weeks ago I bought a Synergy 50w head and the Killer Kali and TW/DLX modules. That is now my main gigging setup as it covers the various tones I need better than my JPIIC. Haven’t taken a pic since the second module came in, but here it is with the Killer Kali.

I’ll probably snag more modules as I like a lot of diverse sounds for recording, but this fits the bill nicely.



And off topic, I have an Allen & Heath QU5 on the way. Should arrive next week. It replaces my QSC Touchmix 30 that I just sold, and leaves my A&H QC18T for a backup unit and acoustic gigs.

I swapped out the MC90 in my MB Thiele 1x12 with an EVM12L Classic.

I got a Mark V:35 and a DSL20. Both have me GASing for a JVM and the 90 watt Mark V they’re awesome, I just need to hear the big ones now.

Ordered a Ceriatone 2525 last week and also scored a "used" Metropoulos DVL-1. If I die tomorrow, I will be totally satisfied. Well....maybe after I receive the Ceriatone...

Bought my first 4x12. Only took me 48 years, lol. Extremely well loved JCM800 with Greenbacks.

I get it now... I get why people love them for the tones and sheer volume on tap. I am a bona fide pedal guy, but had a great time going straight in with this Junior - so many different tones with just the volume knob on the guitar. And I also get why people hate them, seeing how our studio is on the second floor. So yeah, it's never moving again.

Good for you Itchy! Finally!

A nice VOX cover arrived from Thomann yesterday for my AC15

This Bad Cat is amazing. Voxy tones on steroids. I love this amp. Digging more into the EF86 side and need to try my TC Zeus with it.

Are you a fan of Steven Wilson’s solo and Porcupine Tree albums ?

Haven’t listened to much of either tbh. I’ll dive into some soon.

So far this year I’ve added:
Mark IVb combo with EV12L
Badlander 50W head
Cali Tweed 2:20 head
Lonestar Classic 212 combo
Mark V head
Royal Atlantic

I’ve got a Boogie problem, but each of them was going for below (and in some cases WELL below) market value, so I couldn’t say no.

Of them all, I know the Cali tweed will be getting sold, and potentially the Mark V.

Sheesh, for how this forum loves Mesas, this has to be a pretty ginormous 1st forum post!

Note he said, "So far this year".

I’ve been mostly Axe FX for several years, so this is me rebuilding my amp collection. I’ve been a Mesa fan boy since I bought my roadster in 2009. I also have an Electra dyne kicking around, so this year’s additions have quadrupled my collection.

I didn’t even realize that was my first post either, but I guess I have been lurking on and off since TGF started and just never got around to posting.

Too damn busy buying Mesa Boogies!!!

 

[Richard_G]

Picked up this sweet, little amp head today (specs);

Didn’t really have time today to check it out properly, besides verifying that it survived transportation.

Probably not a widespread choice on this forum… But I think it’ll be a great little amp to have around.

To answer the OP question: No. And that won't change in 2025. And not in 2026, either.
