Guitar and Amp Combo - What is(are) your current combo(s)?

I tend to rotate between My Blackmore Strat,Variax and LesPaul thru Marshal DSL 40c

There are three electric amps, and 2 acoustic amps - Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue, Fender '68 Custom Deluxe Reissue, a TubeWorks head (solid state with a tube preamp can be run as SS, tube, both combined) and 2 speaker Tube Works cab, a Crate Acoustic 125D, and a Genz Benz Shenandoah Acoustic 85.

I'm sure people know the Fender amps, but here are pics of the amps some might not know:

For tube:
The Gretsch 5420T, the Squier Jaguar, the Ibanez AM93, the PRS SE Custom 24, and the Strats pair nicely with the Fender '65 DRRI
When I want a bit more dirt in the sound, the Strats, or a Peavey Limited HB pair up nicely with the Fender '68 Custom DRI, which breaks up faster than the '65.

For solid state with a tube preamp:
The Strats, the Peavey, and the PRS SE Custom 24 pair up well with the Tube Works head and cab.

For acoustic:
I think the Taylor 710ce, and the Takamine 12-string both sound best through the Genz Benz.
The Takamine Glenn Frey Signature sounds best with either the Genz Benz, or the Crate.
The Epiphone Masterbuilt DR-500 sounds best through the Crate amp.
 
Right now.
Tele Thinline thru a Champ and a Keely Double Tracker.

Edited, I just busted the 3 way on the tele. It was one of those box switches and the thing split in 1/2.

The local GC has a TubeWorks 7100 combo. I meant to try it out, but didn't get 'round to it.
 
An awesome little $330 rig I'm playing right now :embarrassed:

Yeah, I know it's pompous to quote oneself :wink:, but I gotta say that yesterday I was in a really crabby mood, until I escaped to the basement (or dungeon as @Guitar Heel calls it... :eek: ) and plugged in. After messing around a bit, I put on a rockabilly instructional YT video and played around. That and three hours later I realized I had to get to bed. Most fun I've had playing in a long time! :thu:

If you get a chance, I think it would be worth trying out. I'm a big fan of the Sparkle Drive pedal, and the Tube Works amps have something similar going on. With the Tube Works amps having a dual personality, you can run both channels at the same time to get the dirt, while adding the clean channel offers the added "sparkle." Whatever the "sparkle" is, it's a nice sound to me.
 
I really like playing this

By the way, what year and model is that Gretsch in the OP.
This is mine. It's a 57 Clipper
