70's Marshall 50 watt half stack

DITO. One of the baddest amps I ever had. That and my '64 Bandmaster with matching 2X12 cab.
 
Yeah, that was a rockin' amp! I had a three pickup Les Paul Black Beauty Custom that played through it.

Why did I get rid of that set up?

The Concert was a good twanger- Something the Marshall never really did.

:D
 
It's cool though. When I was a kid I was poor. At least I had a chance to own two classic amps in my life.
 
Mesa Thiele 1x12 mint with a perfect EVM12L. It had the square Mesa Engineering logo.

Marshall 9100. THAT was a badass power amp.

Soldano SP77 Mint
 
Mark IIC+ and my first JCM 800 head. Got the JCM for $200 back in 2000/2001.
Sold it for $600 in about 2002 (bought it to flip it). However, it had "the tone"
and I am stupid for getting rid of it. But seeing what they go for in today's
prices, I would have sold it anyway.

However, I am super content with what I'm getting with a SL module and my
Transparent OD pedal. Plus, I plan on eventually getting the SL2x mod and I'm
sure that will fill any void there is.

Dude, you win! That's just sick! :no: :aww:

Hope you got some good coinage out of it.
 
Those 2 I really miss:

-In the 90s I bought one of the very first batch 5150s new. Its drive channel was awesome!
-I also owned a Soldano Atomic 16, which was a smoking little amp that sounded great.
 
76 Marshall JMP 100 Superlead MKII. That thing could crush your chest with sound.
 
Rivera K100. The one that got away. :cry: Kinda miss my RM4 now. I'm much happier with a full M4 but I miss my W/D setup a bit.
 
NONE :D I still have my Mesa MK III I bought in the early '90s and I have several Egnater Module preamps and Amps. I dont see myself getting rid of anything but might acquire a few more Amp heads like Egnater TOL, Seminar head, IE4, Then maybe a Marshall, XTC, Sodano and Carvin Legacy II.

Blackface Pro Reverb. For obvious reasons.

Ampeg VT-22. Heavy as hell, even louder than that, no breakup ever... but it had sentimental value. My first amp, I won it in a writing contest in "Plug," the freebie newspaper that Ampeg used to publish, and it got me in my first band. That's me in 1970, with a Gibson ES-330 plugged into that beast, playing "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" down to the VFW. Awww, yeah, bay-bee.
 
Mid- '70's Fender Super Six Reverb. Like a Twin, but in a 6 X 10 combo.

Some kind of HeathKit tube amp I had back in 1968 or so, a 2 X 12 combo. I have no memory of whether it sounded worth a damn or not - I'd just like to have it back so I could find out. :D
 
Marshall Silver Jubilee 2553 25/50 watt short head w/ 2 matching 2x12 cabs.
