To be honest I don't really lust for much.

I realised over the years that I'm a spanky Fender into a Marshall kind of guy, so that's led me from the Jag-Stang via Jazzmaster and Telecasters and Mustangs to the Jaguar, and a Duo-Sonic II which Robert(original) built me the body for. I'm really happy with these guitars.

I now have a '66 Jaguar, a CP Jaguar and my Duo-Sonic II and I use them all pretty much equally.

Ampwise, I've always loved Marshalls since I had my Lead 12 practise amp (and no surprise because those things sound fantastic), and although I've dallied with other models (DSL401, JVM) I'm still stuck on my 6100 I've owned since I was a kid. It just does what I want it to, great clean and crunch channels with seamless and fast switching. I've also been fortunate enough to pick up an '81 JCM800 on the way which I love, and it can't be beat for what it excells at (classic crunch sounds), but since the band I use it in needs me to play spanky clean stuff aswell it seems like a waste to use it as a clean amp even though it does it very well.

I'm currently using the 6100 with this pedal setup:

Korg DT-10
MBM Saltbooster
MBM Saltbreaker Overdrive
MBM Blackstone MOSFET Overdrive Clone
MBM Small Clone Clone
MBM Saltshaker Tremolo
MBM Echo Base Delay

and it covers all the sounds I need (and more probably).

Maybe it would be nice to have a little lovely Fender combo at home, but that's really just wanting for something I can't justify and don't need.

Basswise is a different story, if HistoryCrow picks up I'll be looking into light and decent amping solutions.

Pretty much any Fender guitar (Jazzmaster at the mo) into a JCM 900 set with plenty of reverb & a very slight crunch makes me happy.

Have you turned it all the way up, Thom? Does it handle it fine or get a bit farty?

Turned up it sounds really really good - up to about 6 or 7. Then the speaker farts out a bit.
Plugged into an Orange Vintage 30 1x12 and dimed it sounds brilliant. Really lush overdrive.
Mostly I can't do that whilst am at home which is a shame!

whats the low end like on the princeton? nice and warm?

[Thom]

Lovely and warm yes I probably have bass on 7, treble on 4.
