Hey, HM: Holy smokes! That's from 1966? It looks untouched!
You gotta tell us more, sounds, etc...
YOu're based in the UK, right?
I can't find anything like that in the States.
BTW, what year is your LP?

what a cool rig! a real classic.

HM, please post some sound clips of you playing through yer rig!

Oh my!
Those lights (in the dark shot) was probably worth the price alone.
Magic!

HM--you are a Vox man! do you still have the Vox Supreme pictured previously?

I still have the supreme.

I'm not able to record sound clips at the moment, should be good to go again soon though.

Listen to the the outtakes of Get Yourself Together, Yesterdays Papers and Sometimes Happy, Sometimes Blue, plus All Sold Out, Miss Amanda Jones etc etc.

The amp can sound pretty much the same as those tones.

Yup UK based. Check ebay.de for 60's Vox stuff, seems Vox imported a lot of good stuff there, especially 7 series amps back in the 60's.

The les paul is from 2001.

Ok folks here is my birthday present to myself.



And I use this as well at the front end.



Sounds blooming marvellous.

I too am camera-less but I have a Fender Texas Red Blues Junior and a
1950s-1960s era no name tube amp with a schematic sticker inside. The schematic is from American Telephone and Telegraph.

I am also in the process of paying off a used Ampeg VT22 although for $100 more I can get a used Ampeg Reverberocket R212R. This is newer than the VT22.

No camera here either.

Got a 150-watt half stack Gallien-Kreuger 400RB-III bass amp with two 10" and one 15" speaker. It's cool because you can take the top part off and set it on the floor and it rocks back like a monitor. Play a paisley '54 Fender copy Precision bass. Got a plum baseplate that's pretty cool, although it didn't look nearly as pink when I bought it on line! It's somewhat of a chick magnet - they think I'm secure in my sexuality! Yeah baybee!!

Btw this is a cool thread, some of these suckers go way back. Bravo

Man, fantastic! These are rare! In fact, I never seen and let alone play one!

Congratulations with that amp!

Thanks, got it for a great price too!

Such is my liking for it, I sold my Vox Supreme for £700.

Shattered !!!

Amp:
76 Fender Deluxe Reverb, mint, w/ all RCA NOS tubes and Weber 12F150 50W speaker
Reissue Gibson GA-5 ...nice litle practice amp with RCA NOS tubes
Old Alamo Capri amp with a vintage Celestion G10D-25 speaker...Needs to do a cap job on it but I got it cheap so figured what the hell

Guitars:
2000 Gibson Les Paul Raw Power Natural finish...always loved the look of Mick Ronson's LP's with natural finish..
1987 ESP Mirage Custom Black Piano finish..neck through all maple with law suit heads stock...beautiful guitar but heavy as hell
2001 ESP LTD MH301...This is my beater..made in Korea but good deal for a neckthrough guitar

They make a beautiful noise...........
