Left to Right: Vox AC15C1, Kustom K200 roll'n'tuck, MusicMan RD110-Fifty. The Vox and the Music Man are what I use on stage when I play my 360/12 in stereo, the Kustom is my practice amp.

This baby. It's all I have, it's all I want (for now). Versatile and works well for all my needs.

Main amp right now is a 1974 Marshall 2100 Lead & Bass 50 Combo ( 2x12, 50w). Paul Weller is all about these things!
Only photo I have on-hand right now..

OK:
Signal enters on the "Rack-O-Sound™" unit in bottom panel of the top rack, either stereo (Rick-O-Sound) or mono. Stereo channels can be swapped or mixed, input can run directly to the two SansAmp RPMs, or be buffered with 4Meg Ohm input.
SansAmps run to the Rane DC 24 for noise gating and a bit of compression, separate channels for each SansAmp signal.
After the compressor, the Lexicon MX200 can be used to add some reverb or other effects such as octave, chorus, flange, delay, etc.
The channels then go separately to the Rane AC22B crossover where they get separated into high and low channels for each.
The 2 high channels get mixed in the Rack-O-Sound™, as do the 2 High channels, giving a high and a low channel to be fed to the power amp. The high channel drives Ampeg 10" speakers, the low channel drives Ampeg 15" speakers.
The Rack-O-Sound™ unit also has a stereo audio input on the front and another stereo input on the back. These mix into the bass signal and drive the headphone amp for practice/monitor use.
OK, I'm a Techno-Nerd™, what can I say?

My old (from 1990) Fender Princeton Chorus --- SOLID STATE!
Yup, who need those glowing lightbulbs in an amp. My solid state Princeton Chorus is thee best amp for my Rics. Far better than my Roland Jazz Chorus and VOX AC30. The Princeton is bright as heck, trebly, crystal clear, and full and lush (two speakers in this amp).
Go ahead. Laugh at the red knobs. Doesn't bother me. I love this amp. And so do my Rickenbackers.

I need to make some more current photos of this, regardless, this amp sounds great for both guitar and basses.
