Peavey Bandit to Valveking to 6505.From Marshall low gain to Marshall hi gain to Marshall modded?
Out of all my amps, the Valveking has the best cleans, it has a twin reverb preamp.

I forgot to mention that I'm getting a Mesa Halfback vertical 2x12 with C90s to use with my amps. I didn't think I'd need another cab, but someone here posted about liking his, and I decided to look into it. Turns out to be a good idea.
My dealer is checking with Mesa to see if I can get one with the wicker, tolex and tan trim to match my Mark VII. If not, however, I'll still probably order one. The Force is strong with that cab.

They are - really good amps. I had a Komet Concorde in my studio for a short workout years ago (a friend brought it over). It was stellar.It wasn’t til Fractal that I really got into Vox type amps. The Morgan AC-20 and Komet amps are friggin beautiful for EOB.

The Fractal Morgan AC-20 Deluxe model sounded very close to the Victory VC35 I had. So if anyone on the European side of the pond is looking for that kind of amp, get the Victory! And pair it with Alnico Golds!It wasn’t til Fractal that I really got into Vox type amps. The Morgan AC-20 and Komet amps are friggin beautiful for EOB.
I've never played a real Komet, but the Fractal model seems like it works so much better with single coils. It's too tubby with humbuckers for my tastes, to the point it seems like a "blues leads only" amp. I saw Mark Knopfler playing his on the Sailing To Philadelphia tour, it sounded beautiful...but that's probably the player!

I spent the beginning years avoiding the Marshall sound only to find later that was what I wanted to hear all along. I’m still there but I must be getting old because I’ve been digging more thicker Dumbly sounds these days, which is why I love my Magica, it does a great Marshall-Dumble hybrid.
