My herd of low powered amps.

[Fiesta Red]

Was 'Fiesta Red' an actual auto finish name, that was also used by Fender?

( as they actually used Dupont or similar auto finishes, right?)

Yes, it was a shade that was originally only available on Thunderbirds.

Supposedly, it was named after one of the colors of Fiesta dishes—brightly colored dishes from the era.

It was a Ford color from the 1950’s

My Vox AC4C1 is in LSU Purple

I’m color blind so. Maybe anything

Ah… you mean the Radioactive-Red Fiestaware!

Back in high school, my chemistry teacher brought in his Fiestaware and used a Geiger counter on it. *That* made a lasting memory.

Most of my amps are small. I like 'em that way.

Fender Super Champ X2
VHT Special 6 combo
VHT Special 6 Ultra head
Harmony 8418
Roland Microcube x2 (one came along with a guitar)
Vox Pathfinder 15r
Hotone Mojo Diamond
Hotone British Invasion
Tech 21 Trademark 10
Behringer Firebird GX108
Jay Turser Classic 10
Fender Frontman 15g (rehoused as head and 1x10 cab)
Fender Champion 20
Fender Mustang 1

That's too many. Time to sell some.

Speaking of automotive badges, I have a badge from a Corvair Spyder that'll get attached to an amp or speaker cab someday.

I am guessing you will keep the Special 6 Ultra and let the Special 6 go?

If not I would help you unload that Special 6 Ultra head.

 

[Dik Ellis]

My modded Epi Valve Jr. My Tech 21 Trademark 10 and my 70's Pignose.

If not I would help you unload that Special 6 Ultra head.

Actually, I prefer the Special 6 combo plus a Joyo American Sound pedal. I can't view your profile to send you a private message, so PM me if you're interested in the Ultra.

 

[Maguchi]

I got a few of 'em. Crate VC-508, Pignose, Monoprice Stage Right 5 watt, Fender Vibrochamp reissue, Harmony 8418 reissue, Marshall DSL1-CR, Fender '57 Champ reissue.

VC508 weber alnico
Hammond ghia head true Z schmatic P2P turret, another chassis ghia front end with most/some hammond orig left. Hacker orig terminal skifs in use
Vox 15r (pry from cold dead hands)

Black stripe PV 65 studio pro cannibis rex, not sure we can call small.

PV classic 50 tweed 212, 1/2 power tube compliment, but 1968 mullards. With alnico Blue/G35H. Sorta small with 2 el84, definately not with those speakers 212 cab. Tone2bone though.

Handwired 5E3 in pine cab with 1961 heppner alnico.

Webcore stuffed into an old record player cab old 10" alnico.

Pignose something and a SS champ of some sort. Which sounds good with that 8 weber alnico.

 

[davo8411]

Blackstar 1 watt combo and a Blackheart Killer Ant head. I try not to “collect” equipment, but I’d love to have a collection of amps 3 watt or less.

 

[LowerAlabama]

Vht Ultra 6 head, Airline / Valco amp in case, Custom Kraft 900 and a Pro Junior. Used to have a Vibro Champ. I wish I still had my Silvertone 1472. Been playing the Ultra 6 lately through a old 1x12 cab with a Texas Heat. Sounds good with a Tele or Strat

It is criminal at my age (64) that with all my cool little amps, and my love of Classic Rock/ blues rock, that I DON'T own a Pignose!
A few guitar buddies in '70's had them...

( no 'gear $$' right now, but I will catch up, eventually- need a baby Marshall too)

 

[guitarmikey]

Yeah, and... want some more...
- Super Champ X2
- Pro Jr IV
- 4W DIY tube amp
- Marshall Studio 15 (4001)
- Marshall MS-2
- Orange Micro Terror
- EHX Magnum 44
- Vox MV50AC
- Vox AmPlug AC

 

[scrapyardblue]

My herd, just calved last week. 5 watts, natural compression.

 

[capnhiho]

Here’s my contribution to this thread: it’s an octal preamp/6V6 power tube based Gibson Skylark clone that was built by a seller on Reverb. The custom cab is loaded with a WGS G8A Alnico speaker. I had the custom cabs made by an Etsy merchant and, in a nod to @Peegoo, I found the Buick Skylark badge on evilBay. It’s quite the snarky little beast!

 

[Deeve]

My next one may be a LADA (Russian car brand), with a modification.

I've been wanting to try this one for a long time.

Will it leak oil, smoke and be unexpectedly loud?

 

[glenlivet]

Small Amps.... and a cat....

 

[uriah1]

The smallest amp. Lol epiphone
