You must have minions to carry that lead weight around.

From the living room to the spare bedroom? I have a dolly.

Barring anything going kaput and having to be replaced, I expect to finish the year with same amps I'm starting with.

When I gigged with my brother in law, he had a 120. The 55 is much lighter but it is still heavy for its size.

I have a pair of 120s that never get used. Too big, too heavy, too loud.

I have a 55 and a 77. We played the Del Mar Fair on a MASSIVE stage and I only ran the 55. It was more than adequate.

It has plenty of headroom, as does the 77. Both are much easier to manage than a 120. I run them both in stereo now from the HD 500, and it's great still easier to lug around, plenty loud enough, and sound awesome.

I really have no amp plans for this year. That said, if a AC-100, Beatle, or Super Beatle comes by I'm gonna grab it. Because I need more volume in my livingroom.

bought an amp this weekend, wasn't even on my radar when I first posted in this thread.

mako dorado. single channel, 100 watts, 4 6550s. really badass amp. will look perfect on top of my mako 4x12.

 

[Virtual Pariah]

Panama Shaman and cab.

 

[CBHScott]

I still need a cab for the mystery head I got last month...

Cab en route

I would really love to get a Marshall JVM410 and a 2-12 cab for my music room. Way too much amp for me, but I like the MIDI programmability and many sonic options the amp offers.

This just got into my head. May have to make a trip down to Milwaukee to take a look at it.

Only plan is a better cab for the Victory amp, most likely their vertical 2x12.

Considering a cheap-ish rehearsal amp as well. With 2 of my bands we rehearse at another place than the other 2, and being the lazy fucker I am it would be great not having to drag along the whole rig every time. Just the pedalboard and a guitar or 2 would be nice.

I was in a similar situation years ago. 2 bands, different practice places. Part of the reason I went with a head and cab over a combo. I bought 2 cabs, and put one at each practice place, so I only needed to move my head and guitar back and forth.

I have my eye on the Orange CR 35rt, great sounding little amp. The larger Crush Pro CR 60C would be even better.

I've actually got my eyes on an Orange Micro Dark Terror head with the intention of swapping the higher-gain 12ax7 preamp tune(s) with something lower gain, like a 12AY7 or 12AU7. Heard a youtube video of a guy who'd done it on the regular Micro Terror and it smoothed out the sound a lot.
