Ampeg

  • V-2: Picked this up with matching 4x12 cabinet on consignment from Dawn of the Shred for a ridiculously good price.
  • V-4: Bought on eBay "For parts or not working". This is the 100-watt big brother to the V-2.

Electro-Harmonix

  • 22 Caliber (out of production): 22 watt solid state power amp - Pedal board friendly!
  • 44 Magnum: 44 watt solid state power amp - pedal board friendly!

Epiphone

  • Valve Jr.: We picked this up because Pat Furlan on YouTube loves it so much for modding. We're got our eyes open for another to mod, but they're actually becoming pricey and scarce!

Fender

Gallien-Krueger

  • 250ML: Not a conventional amp to get for rental. There's a lot of power in this little box. 50 watts!

Harmony

Laney

Marshall

Massey

Mesa/Boogie

Orange

Peavey

Plush

Randall

  • RG-80 PH: How could we say "no" after talking the owner down to $100.00?
  • RG-100 "Original": We rescued this poor thing and gave it a new life. Check out the articles searchable on our front page.
  • RG-120 ES: This was one of George Lynch's amplifiers from the Tooth and Nail tour, as confirmed by Gary Sunda, who built the amps with George. We even have the "XP-3 Block Booster" that goes in the back that Gary made for George to amplify the additional gain boost that's activated with the pull/push treble knob.
  • MTS / LB-100: Randall Lynchbox 100. One of the "RM" or modular preamp series made in conjunction with Bruce Egnater.
  • MTS / RM-100: Standart RM 100. Along with the Lynchbox, we have 22 modular preamps that can go into these.
  • T2: Hybrid Tube preamp/Solid state power amp. 400 watts. This is a beast and these amps are hard to find today.
  • T2: Hybrid Tube preamp/Solid state power amp. 400 watts. This is a beast and these amps are hard to find today. (yes, we have two)

Retro-Channel

Sears

  • 400G: Crappy 1960s combo practice amp. For when you want a really crappy sound!

Sovtek

  • Mig-100H: This amplifier is basically a Marshall Plexi workalike that was built in the Soviet Union for Electro Harmonix. Uses 5881 power tubes instead of EL34s or 6550s. This model is the high-gain version, versus the lower-gain Mig-100U.

Thermionic Studios

  • Cthugha I: Custom-built switchable Fender Champ / Garnet Herzog. We were already entertaining the idea of a switchable Champ / Herzog when we found an amazing chassis that was both really inexpensive but that was also chock full of good compenents.

Traynor

  • YBA-1: Classic Traynor YBA-1. Loud and tough. Stock amp.

Univox

  • S400: 40 watt cheeseball combo amp with classic 1978 "400" lettering. Actually sounds really good in a mix.

VHT

  • 36 Watt Handwired: Somehow we happened to be on eBay when a few of these unfinished VHT amps + headshells went on sale. We think this was a 36-watt "handwired" that was part of the spillover from the VHT/Fryette split. We obtained what looks like a 36-watt "handwired" and are turning it into a 50-watt firebreather.

Weber

  • 6O100: Clone of a 1972 Orange OR-120. High headroom output transformer
  • 6O100: Clone of a 1972 Orange OR-120. LOW headroom output transformer
  • Halle: 50 watt 2-channel gain-banger

WEM

  • Dominator MkIII: Found a good deal on this shipped from England. These have a great sound that's all their own.
