    I've been using a Traynor ygl1 (only amp) for the last 10 years. I love this amp. With the right touch it can cover all the bases. However, a few days ago, I ordered a tweed '57 custom champ. It won't be delivered right away, but I expect it sometime next week. Can't wait!

    So I guess you could say I have 2 amps now.

    I have 10. I play three of them often. Fender Vibrolux, Boogie Mark III, and if I’m rocking: a Marshall SC20H. I’ve had a ton of the boutique stuff and still do have a few, but if the first three I listed can’t get it done I don’t want to play it.

    Do you have the matching SC212? Or using something else?

    I use a 2x12 I’ve had for quite some years made by Mojotone. I have a Scumback M65 and a Celestion Creamback in it. The cab and speakers have worked for every amp I have played through it. It is partially open backed, but I made a panel to close it off. It is currently open backed. I have never played the SC through any other cab, though I could try my Boogie Thiele with EV (which weighs about the same as the 2x12 LOL). I haven’t played the SC cab, but I did play a 2525 or whatever the silver Jubilee reissue through its matching cab and it sounded good (not sure If the cabs or speakers are the same)

    I like the Sc20H better than the aforementioned 25 watt jubilee and way better than a DSL20H I had. It also beat out a Friedman Runt 20. I like the Classic better than the Vintage model because it has a more versatile range of gain at all volume levels other than really quiet. I.E it does standalone home volume fine, but I think it is a bit too loud for homes with walls connected to other residences

    ......and they all serve very singular purposes.

    Carr Rambler Brown Tolex 212
    Red Line 6 Spider 2x10 (stereo)
    Peavey Transtube Bandit 112 (Silver Stripe)
    Crate GXT 100 112 (tube pre amp)

    Just one...

    Fender Super Reverb Head
    cabinet with 15” speaker

    I like Pat Martino’s minimalist approach. Just take your head and plug into someone’s 4x12 cab. I would like to try a Claris head but I do love the tube sound.

    Replaced the Boss Katana 100w, a jack of all trades do anything modeler, with a ToneMaster Twin and a Mesa Rosette. Seems I prefer the real to the faux.

    I have 3
    Main amp is now a ToneMaster Deluxe - covers super clean up to volume levels I need as well as being light as a feather and great power attenuation options - I can get good breakup and distortion at bedroom levels if I need it. It replaced my Princeton Recording which died last year.
    My second amp is a TC electronics BAM 200 into a Toob Metro 6.5 BG. Doesn't get more compact and has great clean sounds. Takes pedals nicely, but has no built-in reverb. Takes my bass too.
    My "standby" amp is a Laney Linebacker 50w combo bought new in 1986. Excellent cleans with adjustable mid and bass boost. Good spring reverb and effects loop, plus line out. Dirt channel does a good scooped blackface impression at all levels and in full boosted overdrive does nice Santana-ish distortion. Channel switching and mixing gives lots of flexibility. 35 years of good and loyal service!

    Just 1. Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb. Has everything I'll ever need for any kind of music. But it's tone for jazz is superb. Great attenuator that actually works the way it's supposed to, takes pedals really well, and weighs 23 lbs. Checks all the boxes and then some for me. Not saying I'll never own another tube amp. I've been a vintage or boutique tube amp fanatic/snob for 59 years. Would have never considered a SS amp until I played through the TM. Most versatile amp I've ever played through. Some people complain about the price ($899 I think). But if you look at the features, they're a bargain, IMHO. They're really that good.

    Update:

    Local guitar store had a Schertler DAVID languishing for 3-4 years.
    Played through it a few times... excellent for my use but used at $700.. I passed.
    Recently I had a chance to use it again to try out a guitar.
    Passed on the guitar but got the DAVID for a screaming deal.
    I like it a lot.

    Quilter MicroPro 200, 8”, with an extension cab w/Celestion Classic Lead 80

    I really need to sell the two Bedrock amplifiers, the Marshall Valvestate, and the acoustic amp, as they get no use at all. The Quilter is my gigging and rehearsal amp. I just got the Deluxe Reverb back from the shop, and it is just what one would expect. The Ampeg hasn’t run in decades, but it’s my first amp, so I guess I’ll get to it fairly soon while I’m in that mood. The Yamaha is just a cool toy with good sound and features. Those Bedrocks are killer, especially the 50 watters. I sure do miss gigging, what little I was doing nowadays...

    Here's a photo of a few....I don't generally stack'em up, but took this one for someone that made a special request.
    A bunch of these will be going up for sale pretty soon....not because I don't love them all, but its time to make space and simplify. I'd like to keep 6.

    I've got 5..............because............well............ ..because...........

    Crate GFX 15............two of them. I hang them on the wall(actually shelves) and run my guitar thru a "splitter" pedal. They are DSP so I can get different sounds from each.

    Crate GX 60 C................use this with a Presonus TubePreV2 with a single 12AX7 tube. Got the amp for basic shipping charges. This was just an experiment. Don't do it very often, but I do like the effect....and I don't sell my toys. Oh, I got it cheap because the reverb doesn't work anymore..........

    Crate GX 130 C.................from time to time I get a wild hair up my(you know what) to serenade the horses and cows and pull this out on the porch. One of the things about this amp is that I can get a LOT of volume without distortion. Just ask the horses, cows and any neighbor within a half a mile.

    Blackstar ID:Core 40.............this is the one I use the most. I've experiment a good bit, but mostly it's the clean and smooth setting with just a touch of reverb. I get the sound I like the most..............

    2. Sort of.

    A custom one a friend built out of a Gibson GA20T husk and a Tech21 PowerEngine Deuce Deluxe that I run both my bass and guitar pedal boards into.

    ...oh! And an old MicroCube that I've had for 12 years. Use it for around the house playing. Definitely a good little practice amp. So, 3.

    Last night I took the AER Alpha with my Boss Reverb for a duo gig with a singer. The Alpha is still a great little amp for those smaller gigs. The Boss reverb sounds a lot better than the built in reverb imho and makes the amp much more usable.
