So: what would you say is the rarest amp out there today?

I would say it has to have been in at least limited production...
So no one offs. Anyone can build an amp and claim its one of a kind.
Although maybe the early VH4 in the Marshall headshell could qualify. I.e. it was a one off, but not really. (I'm not saying that IS the rarest, just giving an example). In fact I don't think it should be allowed.

What do you reckon?

Dumbles surely would fall into your limited production requirement , as well as Trainwrecks . I'll add

Re: So: what would you say is the rarest amp out there today?

The rarest amp I think of is a SS Gallien Krueger head called the Backline 150, one of the best SS amps ever. I had one in the 90's, sold it and been looking for another for about 20 years. Btw, this has nothing to do with the cheap Backline bass line.
