guitars and amps that play well together?

[skeksis]

there's probably 50 similarly themed threads on this board, but I'm just wondering if y'all have had better luck with some pairings than others.

for example:

my 66 Princeton Reverb is a tone monster with certain guitars: Old silvertones with the Rowe/DeArmond pickups end up with some of the best results I've ever heard. My old Duo-sonic matches the amp well too. BUT I've had nothing but bad luck with a Telecaster into that amp. way too bright, full on ice-pick unless you squash the life out of the highs.

my 63 Silvertone 1482 (rather tweed deluxe-like) is darker, and LOVES the teles. it sounds rather ho-hum with the silvertone guitars or the duo-sonic.

lastly, I've got a 64 Airline 20w 2x12" with goofy fischer alnico speakers that tends to sound pretty awesome regardless of which guitar I play (though the brighter teles really shine through the amp). who'd have thought?

I'm more a rock or twangy rock player (think Old 97's), wondering what you more-experienced players hear when you mate specific guitars to specific amps?

My Epiphone 335 sounds amazing into my DRRI.

I think my Blues Junior sounds better with single coils (My Telecaster) than with my humbucker guitar.

The 5E7 Weber Bandmaster 3X10 Combo seems to enhance every Geetar I put in front of it. A real "hit recording" type of Tone. It REALLY does all of the great sounds from the 1960's and early 70's. You just put everything except the Bass (3-4) on 11 and use the knobs on the Geetar.
That's it.
I had wanted to get a CeriaTone "raintrek" but the 5E7 does everything from the instrument too -so- I guess I'm there.

My MIM 50s Esquire with a Fralin pickup straight into a Mission 5E3.

This guitar sounds quite nice with my '68 Deluxe Reverb, but it just comes alive when plugged into the 5E3.
