I've got more amps than Guitars....hopefully that will change soon...!
Fender Twin Reverb Blackfaced '72,
Vox AC30 TBX RI (last ones made in England)Roland Jazz Chorus JC77 2X10,
Marshall with some Vox mods 18W Hybrid kit amp, Roland Micro Cube, (great sound for a 2W practice amp)
and a Mini Fender Deluxe.....!

My setup is a little unusual - I play through two Yamaha Magicstomps (one for amp modeling, the other for effects). The output from those goes to a DI box and then to the PA, and also to an Ultrasound AG30 combo, which I use as an onstage monitor. As many of you will know, this is an acoustic guitar amplifier - that's what I originally bought it for, but it functions so well in this role, I haven't got around to buying a 'real' guitar amplifier yet!
It's not very loud, but it's super-clean, and my 650 sounds lovely through the combination. It's also very light, which was a major purchase factor for me.

Vox AC30CC1
Traynor YSR-1 (50w dual EL34 head)
Vox Berkeley Super Reverb ('66 18w dual EL84 head)
The CC1 has a Weber 12a125 installed (replacing the stock NeoDog). The YSR-1 and the Berkeley are played through an AC30 extension cab with Webers, a Berkeley (Vox) 2x10 cab with Weber Blue Pups, or a Royal Guardsman (Vox) cab with Vintage Goodmans.

Usually play my 325C58 thru a '67 Vox Berkeley II. That gives a great early "Lennon" sound.
My '80 360-12 goes thru my 2004 Vox AD30VT set at AC30 with effects on "compression". It has an terrific Byrds-y jangle and chime. I haven't yet invested in a Janglebox, but the more I read from other forum members how great they are, the harder I need to work on convincing the wife that I "NEED" one.

Howard, Bogner makes high-end valve gear. Scads of distortion players go for them, but their clean tones are where it's at. If I ever need more than my 15W tube combo, I'm going for one of these.
