Depending on my mood, I use either a 73 Silverfaced Deluxe Reverb, a Traynor YCV20 WR, or a Pathfinder 15.

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.

Noel: Bognor Metropolis? I've not heard of them before. Can you give us (me) a bit more info?
I've heard of the lovely(?) UK seaside resort of Bognor Regis, but................

I use a Vox Cambridge 15 and Crate V1512(tube) at the same time. It's a nice combination, but I'm thinking about maybe a new AC15CC when they come out.

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.

Vox AC30CC1, for the first time last night. I didn't run a Rickenbacker through it. Shame on me.

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.

*even the higher gain models have delicious clean tones!

Check out Lyle Workman's clips (with the other models). Great tone!

Aitch, the words 'lovely' and 'Bognor Regis' rarely occur in the same sentence. Despite that, I have very fond memories of the place - my grandparents lived in the village next door (Felpham), 100 yards from the beach, so that's where we spent most of our summer holidays when I was a kid.

Hence the question mark, David. I had my tongue pressed firmly against my cheek!!
Noel: Seems like really top quality gear - my guess is that the price is up there also?

I use a 60 watt Fender Blues Deville.
Gets any guitar to sound worth at least twice it's value.
When you unleash it's evil power it sounds like it's on fire.
If I plug in my ric (guitar OR bass, I play 'm both on the deville), I get on fire.
