I don't know about until he passed away, but I could barely get my mid-90s 5150 sold for $350 back in '05.
Which I regret, immensely.

You jest, but that's the "limiting" factor of the AxeFx. Cliff and Co solve this for those that don't want to invest the time to learn it for whatever reason, and their sales undoubtedly increase.I just want a translator for "guitarist". Forget sag, B+, gain staging... I'd like knobs that say "squish" and "bloom" or "warmth"
I disliked that amp so much I literally gave it away. My buddy said he dug it I told him to keep it.Have any of you had an opportunity to try/use a fender Supersonic? I feel that its one of their better amps its very versatile and sounds great. Not sure of its still sold or if it was a limited run but one hell of an amp.
OOH the Revv….that was my potential amp purchase along with a mess before I settled on the AxeI'd personally like some Randall amps, the Fortin Satan, Revv, Krank...
I haven’t found anything yet in the Fractal amp inventory that comes close to the fist pumping fury that is the saturation circuit in a 1985 Peavey Bandit.
Love my Mesa Boogie California Tweed.They do have a bit of a unique sound, I think they are overrated personally but I can see why people dig them.
Mezzabarba, Driftwood and Mesa boogie are examples of amps with massive followings that I just think sound a bit rubbish.
This and yes I do wish at some point that a Wizard MTL would be awesome but yeah it’s sound could definitely archived with tweaking one of the Marshall based amps.I see very few amps that would add anything of value to the Fractal. I would rather see more bass amps at this point than any guitar amps.
Adding any more Marshall-based amps seems pointless when you have a huge selection already. To me your Mezzabarbas and Driftwoods do absolutely nothing you can't get out of existing models by tweaking a bit. Afaik many of the Mezzabarbas are Soldano SLO-based, not sure of the Driftwood but might be similar. Most amps on the market are not that unique and their feature sets are bigger differentiators than how they sound when played through the same cab. In the digital realm those feature sets become irrelevant when you can just switch amp models at the press of a button.
Stop thinking about having your favorite brand/model X in the amp and start learning what the already massive selection can do. The goal should be to get your favorite tones rather than the tone of some particular real amp. If you treat amp models as if they are just some presets you will find more tones that you like.
I have kind of wondered about the missing jcm900. Might not be very sought after anymore, but was very widespread in the 90s.77 MarkII MV
94 JCM 900
Deering DVA 90 DF Model
I rehearsed with a 900 combo one time, I had the bass at 10 and the treble at 0 and it was still thin and sharp with a Les PaulI have kind of wondered about the missing jcm900. Might not be very sought after anymore, but was very widespread in the 90s.
I used to have a 1x12 50w combo as a teenager, but must admit I dialled it in more or less randomly back then.
