This round was easy!
Play Rhodes
Keep Paul Stanley
Chip all Deans - also might as well chip Dean Zilensky, Chip Armadillo Enterprises, Chip Armadillo Momma and Business boy Evan, and Chip Thoroughbred Music, and mix them up with all the Chipped PRSs and make funeral pyre so big that the Gibson Lawyers sue for firecode violations. Then chip the Gibson Lawyers too

I literally am. But I already have a P-bass.
I don't have a Ric.

I am pretty sure LZIII is the Marshall, but it is more about what piece of gear you would get the most joy or use from not capturing the tone of that particular musician.

Never really got along with Voxes, but have only really played AC15s and 30s . . . I guess that would have to go to the chipper.
The Hiwatt is responsible for a ton of tasty tones from Zep's live stuff, but more importantly - that's David Gilmour's amp! Gotta keep that one.
And playing through an SLP at high volumes through a full stack would be a fun thing to do.

...and Pete Townshend's! Though from my understanding, the Hiwatt was modded by Hiwatt for Page with a choke so he could get more gain and sustain out of it. That mod made it into production models, which Gilmore was most likely using.

Play the Hiwatt (just want to hear what it sounds like. Usually Hiwatts are pretty harsh and freaking loud standing in front of them. Not the #1 keeper sound.)
Keep the Marshall. (could use this all day, every day, twice on Sunday.)
The VOX deserves a campfire, but chipper will do. There's an Aclaim Dr. Robert pedal that makes this sound, so the remaining 7 amps in existence are not needed.
...and just because there's a photo of someone using an amp, that doesn't tell you how often they used it and what other gear around it was required to get those classic sounds.
FWIW Pete Townshend's Hiwatt was actually different. His had 4 gain stages with separate volumes on the front and only bass/treble for tone, no presence or mids. You can still get his sound with a standard DR103, just working the settings and optionally using all 4 inputs in various combinations. I believe the Gilmour version was designed to slave additional power amps from the main one. But I think the Page and Gilmour versions are very close if not the same audio signal circuit. I think both Pete's and Gilmour's owed some of the circuit design to Hiwatt P.A. models, Pete's with the multiple input gains, and Gilmours with the slave out to chain other power amps.
