    Musicman 210 sixty five. It's a clean machine, and my favorite amp. The cleans just got louder when I modded it with some KT88s. 
    Smashes it on bass too

    Princeton Reverb II with a Fender 12F: a 22 watt amp with a 200 watt speaker.

    Carol-Ann Satin through the matching 1x12 Creamback 65 loaded cab is the best I've played.

    JTM45 is wonderful clean. Not as thin as the Bassman clean.

    I like the Vibroverb too but it’s real strength isn’t clean.

    Super Reverb’s are nice as is the Deluxe Reverb.

    I like a Princeton too. 

    But my favourite clean sound is the JTM45 (with a fuzzface and the volume rolled back)

    I think I prefer an amp that is capable of great cleans, preferably with slight break up...

    So best experiences, depending on volume and whether at home or live;

    - Redplates
    - Carr Rambler and Slant 6v and Sportsman
    - Matchless Lightning

    And the current two :)

    - Lazy J20
    - Matchless Nighthawk

    Well, we all have a different understanding of what clean really means...but here are my thoughts:
    • Redplate Blackline (clean channel)
    • silverface non-MV Fender Twin Reverb (85W)
    • silverface non-MV Fender Pro Reverb (45W)
    • Mesa Boogie Blue Angel
    • HiWatt Custom 20/2x10"

    Fender Deluxe Reverb .. they look cool as well.

    Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

    Hiwatt sa212 it's just the nutts
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    Matchless dc30. It was one of those "WTF" moments, I cant justify or afford one sadly :(
    I would love to change my username, but I fully understand the T&C's (it was an old band nickname). So please feel free to call me Dave.

    Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life
