Sunburst asked what guitars you use and as, with pedal-use, the amp is at least equally important for the desired result.
When gigging I use a Fender Blues Junior, 80�s Fender Concert or SF 50 W Fender Bassman.
At home I use Blues Junior (when nobody is sleeping ), Tech 21 Trademark 10 or Roland Micro Cube (sometimes 2 of them to get nice stereo with chorus). I�m a big fan of the Micro Cube, the cleaner settings.

I use a Hughes & Kettner 50 watt solid state amp. Not a very expensive amp, but with a really good clean sound.

I have many times considered buying a more expensive "boutique" amp, but have really found no real reason for it as long as my HK keep delivering the goods, and are so compatible with Boss pedals...

Most of the time I use one of my homemade 5W class A amp heads with a Marshall 2x12. I also got a JC-120 that I use for clean sounds.

Right now I'm using a marshall 9004 SS preamp. I'm looking for the right power amp to go with it right now.

A Tech21 Trademark 120. I also have a Fender "The Twin", a Marshall AVT50, an Ampeg V-2 w/ Marshall 4x12, a Kustom 250-4, and a Line 6 pod, but the Tech 21 goes to gigs with me.

My new favorite amp is my new (used) Marshall Lead 100 Mosfet head. It was a toss up between that or keeping my old preamp (it would have been more expensive to keep the preamp).

For the guitar, I'm using a Pod XT Pro plugged into a Marshall 9200 (2x100w with tubes). I could play in stadiums with that amp !!! There are 8 tubes in there if I remember well...

For the bass, I have an Ampeg B2R which is quite nice but I'm willing to find a bigger amp (this one's 200w with transistor) with tubes, to match with the sound of my Fender Jazz Bass V.

* Laney VH100R head (monster loud, monster gain, 10 f*cking tubes inside, no diode clipping either!)

* Marshall 1960A 4x12 cab (with made in England Celestion's and not the new chinese ones)

* Peavey Bandit 112 from the 90's (the most reliable SS combo ever)

Tell me what you think of the sound(s) you can get from the Peavey Bandit.

Grace and peace,

Steve
