Well to summarise, fancy amps turned digital, not all cracked up to be, hard to buy in living crisis, all owned by Conway, run out of parts, temptresses for playing with ones 9 lber and something about crunchy pants. A worthy discussion, thanks all. I'll keep my eyes out to match the swart and redplate with a kantana.
One thing we forgot to ask in the rush to derail the thread; what sort of fancy amp would be likely to spin your wheels?

Well, what started this was acting too slow on the handwired DR that was for sale on here - been looking for one of these for a while but also lusting for the big brother vibrolux - rare as it seems these are in NZ. But my amp fetish means I get interested in anything classy.
Lately, i've been switching from years playing strats and teles to a les paul, which I love to play in terms of guitar feel (think it's the short scale and fretwire) but I struggle to get a tone I'm satisfied with on the lester on any amp easy enough to lug around, so that has also started the latest search.

Oh, and I enjoyed the derailing banter.
Are you after Blackface mostly, then?

Spring is the comic sans of reverbs anyway.

I definitely lean that way it seems. The only tweed I have left these days is a cloned tweed bandmaster, which I find a bit barky with the les paul at gigging volume. I also enjoy an ac15 and a 2061x marshall - but again more with the stratocaster than the less paul.
