The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

[kevlar3000]

This is an appropriatley scruffy pic of my dusty and crusty stash of noisemakers. I LOVE THEM ALL SO DEARLY!! The uglier and dirtier, generally the happier I am. One day I will actually own a digital camera and trust me the amps will look even uglier!

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Amp HO!

Seriously, you are an amp tone whore! I thought I was bad. The beauty of heads, right? Just stack em up and play through the same cab!

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

I will not rest on this earth until I have a Celtic in that collection... bwahahahahaha!

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Awesome collection of tube goodies. The first thing I thought was....Kevlar doesn't live in earthquake territory. I'd be scared to have mine stacked up like that!

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Scott,
I definately prefer 'amp crack ho' cause these is low class all the way. I find these in the alleys and trashbins of trailerparks all around the nation. Celtic huh??? Very inteawesting wabbit... Remember, I get these with the crackho discount, I have a card... It ain't the bluelight special, it's the I ain't got no lights special!

GJ, I have thought often of the earthquake issue, and am glad it ain't an issue, if ya know what I mean!! If you look at the pick, you will clearly see that these amps actually snug right to the ceiling. I laughed when both sides were stacked as they fit perfectly. Now I am wondering where the 3rd stack will satrt???

BCV310, LOL... Perhaps one too many of each....

Here's the amp wall from my rehearsal studio ...

Re: The return of AMPZILLA - Pic Warning

Holy hell, nice rehearsal space!!

I played one amp all through the 90s, now I am like what the hell did I do that for? I use everyone of them, even when I practice I am switching every few minutes. The different tonal colors just keep inspiring me. I could care less about chasing guitars these days, but amps are a whole different thing.

Yep, VH-4 is my #1 choice for rehearsals.
