I'm just wondering if folks have as many amps as I do. I currently have seven. Most were in need of major work and gotten cheaply. Here's my list:

1969 Fender Princeton
1972 Fender Super Reverb
1974 Fender Twin Reverb
1964 Fender Concert
1971 Fender Bandmaster Reverb
1987 Marshall Jubilee 100w and Carvin 4x12 Legacy Cab ( Vintage 30's)
Dr. Z Route 66 and Z-best 2-12 cab

No way I can top Arjay's Fender amp collection. In either variety or condition.

But, I prolly own one of the earliest. A 1948 Champion 600. Still looking for a nice K&F amp to restore.

:mrgreen:

Arjay's is a fine list indeed! Here's what I have so far:

1959? Bogen Challenger CHA-33 PA converted to a guitar amp head
'65 Bandmaster, converted to a 2x12 combo by Newell amps (still have original head cab)
'65 Tremolux w/ 2x10 cab
'65 Showman w/ 2x12 Bandmaster cab or Ampeg SVT 210HE bass cab
'74 SF Princeton
'77 SF Princeton Reverb with DR OT
Dr. Z Mini Z & 1x12 Cab

It's a start… Next on the list (may be a while for these)
Pre-74 Deluxe Reverb
Dr. Z Maz 18

Arjay wins hands down. 8)

My modest group of low-watt amps, which is the focus of my "collection" <I use that term very loosely> :wink:

1956 Fender Harvard (5F10) with original cover
1956 Silvertone 1333 (Danelectro)
1960 Gibson Skylark (GA-5)
1964 Gibson Discoverer Tremelo (GA-8T)
1965 Fender Reverb Unit (Blackface - 6G15)
1966 Fender Champ
1969 Fender Princeton
1973 Fender Vibrochamp
1975 Fender Princeton Reverb
2011 Vintage47 1942 Oahu Suitcase (5 watt Valco-inspired boutique)
2011 Fender Champion 600

Odds & Ends:

1949 Bell & Howell external speaker cabinet with original Jensen speaker.
The speaker is a 12” Jensen P12P 16 Ohm speaker rated at 25 watts.
Typically run this as an external with the Princetons.

1954 External speaker cabinet with 12” Quam Speaker. Cabinet is pine with a solid maple frame. Probably originally used with a small PA or projector. 8 Ohm. Run this as an external to the Oahu Suitcase.

Just picked up a 1966 Kalamzoo Model One for my son to take back to college. He was looking for a vintage small watt amp that breaks up. Paid $149 for it. All original with a recent filter cap replacement. Neat little Champesque amp.

Yep hard to beat Arjay's collection and it does appear he has the worst case of Gear Acquisition Syndrome amongst us!

My humble list:
'64 Princeton
'65 Super Reverb
'66 Bassman
'68 Drip Edge Champ
'69 Bantam Bass Amp
'84 Concert
'93 Reverb Unit (not technically an amp, but with the exception of the Super Reverb and Concert, it gets plugged in to them all!)
'68 Silvertone Cab loaded with original Jensen C12Q's.

Only amp I am on the hunt for is a Deluxe Reverb...or I might settle for a Brownface Super, Vibrolux, or a certain '59 Harvard!

And since it is Monday, everybody could probably use some amp porn...so...here is mine. I think Arjay may need to post several photos!

I think I'm going to puke!

You guys have so many of the classic old Fender amps. And so many of 'em have passed into my hands, through my fingers and into history. What I have left is:

2008 Fender Twin Reverb Reissue amp in a Mojo head.
2008 Fender Deluxe Reverb Reissue amp all original, but awaiting a conversion to 6L6 power tubes.
2013 Fender Mustang I v2
2013 Fender Mustang III v2
2014 Fender Mustang III v2
2014 Mustang Floor (my second one) on order.

Passed into history: Fender 63 Brown Vibroverb Reissue, Twin Reverb 2X12 combo, Custom Vibrolux Reverb, several Marshall tube (JCM 900 combo 60, for one) and several Carvin tube amps (going back to 1963), as well as Crate, Fender, Pignose and Marshall solid state amps.

Will someone please kick me?!?!!!

My Bassman 50 (unsure of the year - early to mid 70s based on the little research I've done) and my Fallen Angel 60:

My Sunn 1x15 with an Electro-Voice SRO15:

And my little Rumble 100 2x10:

I have a couple of Ashdown 4x12s and a home made 2x12, but they really aren't photo worthy. lol

Somewhere in that list, between your '66 Vibrolux Reverb and '68 Deluxe Reverb, there's a very important amp missing! :wink:

My list:

1966 Fender Mustang III
1967 BF Supersonic Reverb 22
1967 Blues Deluxe RI (Hendrix signature model)

And my favorite Fender amp, a Limited Edition (# 501 out of 10000) 1968 drip-edge HRD VII RI in Sliver Noire Two-Tone!

antihero1z, those pics are located in your Windows Live account, we'd have to log in with your user name and password to see them. :idea: Use an image hosting website. I wish I could recommend one, but my favorite (imageshack) just became a pay service. :evil:
