Here's an amp I picked up a few weeks ago. It's a Peters Dual Professional. Peters amps are handmade in Canada by James Peters. You can read about them here:

Basically, Peters makes dual or triple channel amps (or a dual preamp), and you get to choose what preamp/channels you want from his 7 or 8 selections.
This amp has the Vega channel, which is a hot-rodded Marshall sound, and the Gryphon, which is a higher gain channel, with lower mids, almost like a Mesa Rectifier voice, but with a tighter attack.
Both channels feature crunch and edge switches that shape the tone/feel.
The amp also has presence, depth and damping knobs, and vintage/modern and wide/normal switches on back, which shape the tone/feel of the output section.
To finish off the features, it has an effects loop, slave out, bias points and adjustment on the back, and a footswitchable dual master volume.
You might think that this amp would be difficult to dial in with all the options, or that you could make it sound bad and have a hard time finding great sounds. Not the case. This is nothing like a Mesa Mark series. That amp has it's voice, the switches/knob are just mild tweaks that give it more gain, more bite, more balls. It never sounds bad. It sounds really good at bedroom volumes (I know, 4 KT88s!) and just gets better from there.
I'd put this amp up against any hi-gainer I've had, including Friedman, Orange, Fryette, Bogner, Mesa, Marshall...any of them. It feels and sounds great.

77 JMP 2204 (awesome!), Peters, Mesa Rectoverb 25 combo and a Fargen Townhouse 5 watter that is super fun to play. Speaking of the Mesa, I made a video playing the same riffs, using the same guitar and cab. Check it out:
