Here's what mine looks like:

Since we're showing off guitars, here's one of mine. Not a Fender
though.
It's a Les Paul Gibson Standard. Nothing special, but a sweet sounding
guitar.

Is the Marshall amp an old tube amp, or solid state?


It's a "Valvestate" solid state, but supposed to have vacuum tube
coloration.
I've got a big old Mesa Boogie tube amp downstairs that really matches up
well with the Gibson. Too big and heavy to carry up to my room.

I'm trying to buy an old Fender Vibrolux reverb combo from an
aquaintence, but he's not coming down much on the price. LOVE that
sound. I've got a Peavey amp that's solid state but warms the tones in
the same way that Marshall's valvestate does. It's nice enough, but I'd
sure like that Vibrolux, what a blues amp! Believe it or not, my
brother has an old, old Heathkit tube amp that was akin to the Fender
Reverb Combo that plays pretty nicely.
