THE AMP SHOW

Post by faceless »

Amplifiers have always been there to bring out the tone of our beloved axes. Be it valve or solid state, they are the ones that "amplify" the mood, emotions, and sound that our fingers create across the fingerboard. With technology, amplifiers become portable, saving one from lugging a once heavy piece of equipment. Nowadays, amps are just a click away for downloads on our mobile and desktop.

But, enough BS as this thread is all about showing what we got! Starting with mine...

Tech 21 Trademark 10. Yoda.

This lil monster is a solid state amp, it's my third TM10. I owned a few Mesa and Marshall amps, but due to my living situation/location now, this amp is just what the doctor ordered.

Enough of that and let the Amp Show begin...post away my dear chaps!

Handmade cab, amp, amp shell.

The amp uses the laney chassis and controls but the innards are all bespoke.

My current favourite amp (albeit to play at home rather than 'out').

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...
