What Amp Are You Playing Today?

[James Freeman]

So many threads, so much gear flipping, so here is a single thread to follow the latest "flavor of the day" amps TGF members are playing.

Today I love my Peavey 6505 tightened by an SD-1 through a 1960BV.

Tomorrow is another day...

Most of the time it's this little stack:

BluGuitar Amp 1 Mercury Edition -> BluGuitar 1x12 Nanocab + 1x12 Fatcab. They have BluGuitar speakers that are kind of like a mix between Greenback and V30.

• Fender-based Clean channel is set up so that it breaks up just slightly if you hit the strings hard.
• Vintage channel does Plexi style things.
• Classic channel is set up like a JCM800. Brighter, angrier than the Vintage.
• Modern is kind of like a SLO.

Ampeg VH140C for today. Running some different boosts with it. Killer amp.

This is an original combo converted to a head it a Crate shell haha

My intention for tonight is to pull the Electra Dyne out and swap it with my EVH. No band practice until next week so I have some experimentation time, I want to try running the ED as a clean-ish pedal platform while using the FM9 for all the drives. Might be a good time to try using some amps as dirt pedals by disabling the cab/amp.

I don’t need the super tight aspects of the EVH for this band, boosted JCM800 territory will work just as well and might fill things out better.

Don’t you start with the ED. It’s at the top of my amp list and I’m not sure how I’ve avoided it for so long. The simul class stuff just feels so nice to play.

This beast...

Your run of recent amp acquisitions has been nothing short of prolific.

 

[Deadpan]

This could be the definition of an unclassy guitar amp.

 

[FuzzyAce]

Hopefully one of these 2 later tonight. Either through a 2x10 cab with cannabis rex speakers, or Suhr RL into DAW.

The ED is a beast! In both tone and weight!

Good, cuz I'm not letting the twin go for nothing!

I’ve been feeling out this early 70s Bassman 50 that’s actually an AB165/AA864 hybrid with a post phase inverter master volume after a visit to my tech.

It’s an amazing feeling and sounding amp that feels like the ultimate Fender meets Marshall Frankenstein.
