Help Me Pick a New Amp...Please :)

[Deadpan]

Have a ton of amps, but I need another. I'm even considering a bass amp.

Been considering a Fireball but I have a Savage. The new SE Founders Edition looks nice but I don't generally buy them new.

I have a JP2C so I'm thinking pass on the Mark VII?

Badlander...I have been on the fence for a while. I have SO many Mesa amps surely this would overlap some. After reading @JiveTurkey 's experience recording with it I am further put off.

One amp I have planned to buy is a Divided By 13 FTR 37. The prices lately are too high...

I have been keeping an eye out for a Ampeg SVT with no luck. Someone mentioned maybe a V4?

Ages ago I had a Framus Cobra and liked it but it was very modern and couldn't quite do thrash so I sold it. I miss it.

I believe I have Marshalls covered but I would consider an old SLP. Any years/models that really stand out? I know the obvious 68, 69 or 72, but really, is there that much difference?

That leads me to the Suhr 68 v2...interested, but then the New Friedman Vintage? I have the JEL100, is the Vintage the same as the Plexi on the JEL?

A Roland JC-120 would be cool. I need to shop this one.

Help!

Road King 2.

I’m not even kidding. If you couple it with your Mark, you will have every sound imaginable.

Also, I own and love my Badlander 100. They’re awesome amps.

I've played a Road King and liked it. A bit stronger mids that the standard models. I do have 4 Rectos currently...

I will add this to my actively looking for list.

Specifically the Road King 2. It improves on the RK1 in several ways, especially the clarity of the clean channel. It’s the recto that made me sell off my other rectos.

I had a JC for a while, paired with a Strymon Dig+Big Sky and it was amazingly awesome as chorus drenched washed out ambient machine. Kinda wish I kept it. Def a great change of pace amp to have around.

I'd roll with the founders SE out of what you listed!


I also think everyone who likes high gain should have a 5153 of some variety..

ALWAYS wanted to try a Framus Cobra

I can't remember if it's the Cobra or Dragon that seemed to have a high failure rate. Or maybe that was just false information

I think the Dragon but can't remember as it was so long ago

Where did all the Framus amps even go? They were a pretty hot ticket back in the HCAF days but no you rarely hear any talk of them and theres exactly 2 each of cobra/dragon on reverb right now...

Sounds fantastic, just a bit stiff feeling.

Those were good sounding amps, as were the Blue Voodoos.
