Thought I'd get the ball rolling.

I've got a 1X12 Victoriette -That's the 18w 2X EL-84 model.

It came with a Jensen P12Q in it, which is a great sounding speaker, but I swapped it out for a Cannabis Rex. Basically, I went from a tweed sounding amp to a blackface. Exactly what I wanted.

I like to describe the sound of it as a blackface Deluxe that just stepped off the plane from London. It's got the chimey/jangly top end of a Vox, but the punch of a Deluxe.

I've been a member of the victoriaamps newsgroup, but I find it to be a bit of a pain in the butt having to deal with the newsgroup format.

Hopefully we can use this thread as a place to gather everything Victoria related!
