Late 70's Custom (refin and the serial # is really hard to read) through a 5150 II (Added a Torres Dual Rectifier kit, using two 5U4 rectifier tubes and also Tesla-made Groove Tubes 6L6S) or a JCM 2000 TSL.

98 R8 through a 65 Fender Pro Reverb with 2 12" EVM speakers. Even though the pro can't even shake the EV's I love the combination. I also have a y2k Goldtop darkback and I play slide on an SG Standard tuned to open E. For acoustic I have a Taylor 710CE a dobro and a Weber mandolin

I rotate between playing a `99 R9,`00 R7, `00 R9,`01 R8, and an`01 R9 into an assortment of vintage and tweaked reissue Marshalls and tweed Fenders and Fender clones. I`ve been using a 1972 Superlead or a RI 1987x into either a RI checkerboard slant cab or a #1982 straight cab with G12H 30`s for the originals band I`m in. For blues/rock I use any of my amps, depending on my mood, and I`ll also use Strats.

Y2K R7 Goldtop, and 02 Std. Prem +, through an '87 Boogie MK III head into a '69 Marshall 4X12. In smaller venues I use a Boogie wide body 1X12 instead of the Marshall.

LP Custom with BB3 in the bridge through a Ampeg VL 503 for gigging and practice. I use a PV C30 at home. The PV sounds way better with my tele. The Ampeg sounds way better with my LP.

Guess I'll chime in here -

88 Showcase Edition Standard -> Samson Airline AG-1 wireless thru a 5150 half-stack with a BBE 362 and Rocktron Hush.

DAMMIT - I didn't realize I was well over 200 posts - how the hell did I manage that?

I have a 2002 Les Paul Standard in wine red (currently getting Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro neck and Custom 5 bridge pickups installed), and that is plugged into a Teese Picture Wah pedal, which then goes directly into my Rivera Chubster 40 amp. Occasionally, I may throw in my Boss GE7 equalizer pedal, but that is rare. I may shell out for a Boss DD-5 delay pedal someday.

97 LP Custom or 99 LP Special (see my avatar) throught a Fender Blues Jr. I don't gig so the extra watts don't help me at all. The Blues Jr. is a fine amp for low(er) volume playing. Great smoooooth tube tone.

Both LP's are all stock. I like the 498T pick-up and the 490R's are livable for now.

30TH Anniversary LP goldtop/ JCM800 model 4010 50w combo. I play this amp the most cause it's my only one. I 'll step on the old TS9 when the mood strikes.
