1 Old Peavey Bandit 112- Played bass through it because I didn't know any better
1 Silverfaced Fender Bassman- Played guitar through because I was starting to catch on
4 Ampeg VH-140c's- That solid state amp that everyone loves, still have a combo version
1 Ampeg SS-140c- Almost as good
2 Marshall JCM 900's- Both high gain, dual master volume
3 Orange AD 30- 2 combos, one 2 channel, one with reverb, and 2 channel head
1 Sound City Mark II or III custom- Sick *** hiwatt power!
1 Custom built to my specs, PENNINGTONE amp- Knobs went to 11, Scream and Sing Channels, Bright Orange tolex. It was too noisy and didn't sound very great. (My last name's Pennington, btw).
1 Sovtek Mig 100h- Heaviest amp I'd owned til I bought the Randall
Vox AC30 CC head- Great sound but I already had an mts
Randall RM100- Best amp I'd ever researched and found
Egnater M4/RT250- Best rack setup ever
Egnater Tourmaster 4100- Got in an endorsement deal, probably going back to modular
Don't even start me on cabs...

HEY, what did you think of that RIVERA head???
Well, its deffinately doesnt suck, but kinda hard to tweak. sounds like marshall with mesa bottom. Not enough gain- for me anyway. some of the eq doesnt do much and some completely changes the tone with every c-hair turn of the knob. for warmth the marshalls beat it and for bottom and gain the mesa's beat it. It does, however do the best fat strat and billy gibbons tones ever!riff man said:

Owned:
Peavey Rage 258 -- sold for
Fender HR Deville -- will be selling
Fender Blues Jr. -- was not my cup of tea -- I thought I could go small.... right.
Marshall VM -- two weeks and traded in for
Marshall JVM 410 -- I'm very raw after this experience.
Own:
Peavey 5150 II. -- I'm keeping this one. It rocks.
On the way:
Randall Lynch Box w/ Brahma, Mr Scary, Grail and a JTM mod
Tried:
Line 6 SV -- decent but worry about all the electronics
H&K Switchblade -- good sounding amp but... it's that footswitch and their warranty service
Marshall 1987X Plexi -- this was a close runner.
Soldano HR 50+
Soldano SLO -- I will have one of these one day...
Mesa Dual Rectifier -- nice amp but difficult to dial in at the store
Egnater Rebel -- nice amp but not for my style
Vox Valvetronix -- I was looking for a practice amp and bought a hot plate instead.
