Ok,I actually DO have some Fenders

In the interest of equal time after semi-ranting about Marshalls...
These silverfaces turned out to be great blank canvases.The Champ, I got in a pawnshop here in town for 52 bucks about 4 years ago.It's now 6L6'ed,10 inched & Tweed circuited w/ tone control to cut the highs a bit.It goes everywhere,great amp for radio & TV.
The Bassman 100 was a good ebay score.I wired it into a tweed bassman w/ a post phase master and a Tonemaster 4-8-16 output tranny.It's become my favorite Marshall.I got the newer 4x12 cab in a giant pawnshop outside Dallas for 150 bucks,then sold the speakers on the bay for 150 bucks.It's now loaded with them early 80s silver labeled G 12 30 ,super cool sleeper speakers that sound nice n smooth,creamy in a closed cab.It 's the stealth half stack.Since it doesn't say Marshall on it,I don't get half the "you guys aren't gonna be too loud ? " grief I usually get Sounds good with bass too.
The Bassman 135,I got off ebay as well.Didn't do much to it ,just re capped and converted the bias supply.I got it as an option to the SVT for smaller clubs.The cab was a white elephant in a local music store.A 68 large 2x12 cab,got it for 100 bucks.I ended up making a birch ply 6x10 baffle for it,then loadin it up with some 200 watt 10's that I got off this guy that sells funk in trunk speakers for 35 bucks a pair.It's worked out great.

That's awesome. I'm drooling.

One day, my amps too, will hopefully be collectibles...
