the martamp relic is pretty special

but for me it has to be small and proper vintage styling like this watkins clubman


or an old electar

I also like Orange amps a whole lot but I think a Ceriatone will be my next. I like amps that just roar with vintage awesomeness

i think the trace elliot twin is even better, the first amp i really remember wanting badly - mainly for its looks.  although i am struggling to find a decent picture of an original one in green with the simplified trace elliot logo.  The black ones with normal trace elliot logo are not as pretty

still loving mine though, although its not a trace amp in it

by the way, the Larry amp I posted above is a British Purist.

The other Larry design, the Dino 939, is played by Jon Schaffer. Larry posted on HRI that Tim has ordered a Dino as well, so I guess it must be really worth it, as for that acquisition, he will have to wind MANY pickups.

Tim, if you're out there and reading, did you get your Dino already? Would you mind sharing any clips of yours with it?

I like modern looking amps, particularly with metal grills. So..

Elmwood Modena
Bogner Uberschall
ENGL Powerball/Special Edition

And I quite like the H&K style of amplifier, with the lights, etc.
