Anyone else out there using one of the newer versions of these nice little amps with their Ric? I have one and I really do like it quite a bit. :D

I have a traynor YCV 40WR and love it, not only with my Rics, but with all my guitars.

I have one and LOVE it, Bob. What a versatile little tone machine! The range and response are amazing, especially the clean channel. While it sounds great with my pedals, the Traynor is an amp which seems to sing best when there's only a cable between it and the guitar.

I call my Fender Super Sonic and YCV20 'Fat Man and Little Boy'.

I have a YCV20WR, but it's an older model without the headphone jack or the direct line out. It works well with all of my guitars, including all three Rics.

However, next gear purchase will be a Celestion Blue for the amp as I'm a fan of Ainico speakers. I had an Eminence Red Fang in it for a short while, but it was just a loaner as it belonged to a friend who wasn't using it at the time. I also considered a Weber Ainico Blue Dog, but in the end decided to go with the Ainico speaker that just about all others are judged by.
