Amps You Have Either Reacquired or Are Thinking About Reacquiring

That's a 2x12 I got from Sourmash.

2061 CX 2x12 cab

I've never sold any that I liked.

I've been thinking about a used Mustang I ever since mine broke, though.

Oh how wise you are. That way, no repurchasing

Fortunately I've never sold anything I liked either. Anything I've sold was always in the direction of moving forward. It's always worked out that way too.

I can remember each one and remember the negatives that eventually made me sell. No interest in going back at all.

I love it. Celestion V30 and G12H combo. Sounds amazing.

Now that you mention it, with the exception of the Carr Mercury, I've always been a bit disappointed with the reacquisitions .

I'll need to keep that thought in mind.

I had a lead 12 Marshall years ago. Just acquired another for nostalgia. They aren't bad little amps. I like it when I dont want to rattle the windows

There are some very nice regrets in this thread, though.

So much temptation.

Traynor YRM-1. Sold it then immediately suffered seller's remorse. I bought another so I could get back to sleeping at night. I don't have access to my good pics.

Part of me misses my old Dual Rectifier and F-30. But given my space, it's not so practical to have a bunch of amps alongside my Archon, Kemper, and Axe-FX.

Marshall Vintage Modern 2266C 2x12 combo. I’m 99% sure I will end up buying another one at some point as they’re just such a great, compact crunch machine!!

Not quite the same amp, but having had a Supro Dual Tone (which I loved but didn’t have enough volume/headroom) and then changing to a Supro Thunderbolt (which had the volume/headroom but wasn’t as characterful to my ears) I have now gone to a Supro Neptune, which is essentially a lower gain 2x12 version of the Dual Tone. And kicks ass.

In 1959 I bought a Sears Silvertone tube amp with a 15 inch speaker that had sweet tones. Problem was that the speaker would blow at gig volumes. And also no gain control. I have no record of the model name or number, but I would recognize one if I saw one. We didn’t have the ability to select new speakers then like now. So I traded for a Fender Pro blackface in 1963. The Fender sounded good to me only at very high volumes, so I never bonded with it.

In summary, I’d like to have the old Silvertone back. I know what speaker to put in it, and maybe a gain and master control too. Might not be able to afford one though.

I traded a Marshall 1959 reissue for a Sunn Model T I had been drooling over for years. Loved that Marshall but they are easy to find and Sunns go for a small fortune when you can actually find one. It blew up on me a week later and cost me and arm to fix.. Would love to get another Super Lead but just can't find one that sounds decent for a reasonable price anymore.

 

[Dr. Arkam]

Blues Deluxe Reissue, I wound up getting back the one I sold for less than I sold it for from a different dude.

Now it’s gone and I think I’m good with amps, unless I find a Silverface Princeton for a reasonable price when I happen to have money.

Someone is currently selling one of the 1-watt Marshall Anniversary heads in the classifieds here. That's another one I wouldn't mind getting back. Super fun for messing around at home.

 

[Pappy58]

Nada! When I move things down the rod I'm done with them at this point. I actually completed that cycle circa Y2K when I dumped all my Peavey and Mesa stuff and went back to Tweeds and BF Fenders.

 

[BlueCajun]

I'm currently on my second Fender Supersonic 22. Would love to get another Allen Accomplice and Avatar 18 Watt, both of which I foolishly sold...and maybe another Princeton Reverb.

 

[NotScott]

Anything I have sold was not worth keeping, so I am not going back there. My only regret was buying a CAA OD100 when I could have bought a SLO. After updating the OD to PT100 specs, it still didn't do it for me and I got rid of it. Had I bought the SLO, I would probably still have it.

 

[J50315]

I’d take another early 2nd generation BE-100 that has 5 12ax7s. That was the best sounding one I had, liked it better than the one with the 2017 updates. Just don’t really have a reason to get another one at the moment

I heard a BF Vibrolux Reverb this week that just sounded amazing. In the past, I’ve owned a BF VR and two SF VR’s. I wanted to buy that amp on the spot. Didn’t, bought an R8 Les Paul instead. Still thinking about the Vibrolux though.

I also have a lead on a vintage 18 watt Marshall that I sold a couple of years ago that I’d love to have back.

I also sold a ‘63 Vibroverb RI a year ago that I miss bad.

I need to stop selling great amps.

That amp looks brand new.
