Very handy, thanks so much! Lots of amps I actually had no idea what they looked like ;-) Always fun to read all the info!
 
Just wanted to say I used to work in the amp industry and this is so awesome for guys that don't know the history of amps.
But one thing that kinda bugs me bf in being super finnicky here is the Matchless as grand daddy of boutique amps.

Matchless, Bogner, VHT/Fryette since 89.
Soldano, THD Electronics since 87
Before that you had Rivera and Bradshaw but IRC Bradshaw didn't do amps til 89 or 90.
I know Rivera was before since I was one of his poster boys in 87.
Before that you had Fisher, Kelly, and Dumble.
Before that Mesa

plus the German guys like Kitty Hawk that caused Dumble to goop his stuff and also Palmer who before making speaker sims made a bitchen Mark looking better sounding amp
 
Haha, I'll change that, just for you. I believe it is a quote from the Fractal manual.

I welcome all suggestions for corrections and improvements.

PS I owned a Knucklehead somewhere late 80s/early 90s.

I think the same thing every time I see Matchless get that label. I was exposed to Jim Kelly and Rivera amps (the Rivera designed Fender amps) early on in my playing because the local killer players had them.
