Members iansmitchell Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Okay, we ALL know the knee jerk reactions: Marhshall '59 Plexi Fender '58 bassman But what would you choose, if you had a warehouse of every amp model ever made, and could pick just ONE? Oh, and you can't pick the most valuable and sell it for 2 of your first choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Samnite Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 One amp, but I get to keep my pedals? Fender Twin Yeah. This. My band is playing a show tomorrow night. Two dimed Twins and a 200-watt Traynor all-tube bass amp. Good God, it's going to be loud. And everybody's going to have a tonegasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members HoobaStunk Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Probably an old car radio with germanium transistors, with a quarter inch plug on the back for the amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Joranges Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Hm... I've always loved the bell tones from an 1974x. Other than that, maybe one of the Mesa Boogies Express-es (such versatile amps ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members flummox Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Matchless DC-30. It's the amp Vox would have built if Rolls-Royce had bought them out instead of Korg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Furtive Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 I wouldn't say there is such a thing as "the best amp ever", but an original high power tweed Twin is #1 on my amp wish list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
