My Guitar Amps (1965- now)
Green= Still in posession

Year Model Watts Colour Description
1965 Radiola 1-2 ? Brown Radio set. It broke due to the painful chords processed
1966 Philips 1-2 ? Blue/Gray Jacked in thrugh the microphone input. There was a "monitor"
button so it could be used as an amp
1967 Hagstrom 10 Black/grey Oh what a beauty. A large red control light brightened up
my senses.
1967 Home made 10 ? Silver Pure shit made of parts from other electronic gadgets. It never
really worked properly. Connected to a speaker cabinet filled
with all the speakers I could gather from broken radio sets, tape
recorders and you name it. This cabinet went to flames when
my mother connected it (by mistake) to the AC socket....
1967 American origin 15 Black This one was good. But I only borrowed it from the man who
created the Home made
1967 Fender Twin Reverbs 40   I borrowed a couple of those in my early days. Johnny Magnusson had a nice, yellow one (Looked like the second on the left side of the picture)
1968 Dynacord Eminent 35 Grey/black PA-amp used for my guitar playing. A green "magic eye"
worked as VU-meter. Thrilling to watch in the dark...
1969 VOX AC30 30 Black/brown I borrowed it from LG Larsson of the Mercy Moose, our
Blues group.
1969 VOX AC50 50 Black/brown The same LG provided me with this amp. I used an old tape recorder as a preamp and made it sound great.
1970 Marshall top 50 Marshall green The best amp ever ! I run it through 2 cabinets equipped with
2x12" Celestions each. Later on I gathered the Celestions in
a Malmberg cabinet
1973 Fender Bassman top 35 Tweed Wonderful sound, but the little bastard just ate tubes
1973 VOX AC50 50 Black Never liked this one. Not loud enough and a boring, dry sound. Too clean.
1974 Marshall
Super Lead top
100 Marshall green Power ! No master volume, but I turned the knob
to 10 almost all of the time...Used together with 4 Celestions
in the Malmberg cabinet
1974 ELK Reverb 20 Black/grey Nice little amp. A Fender copy. Unfortunately stolen.
1977 Traynor Combo 45 Black A nice one. I was tired of carrying that heavy Marshall
and it´s even heavier cabinet. Sold it later on to Bo in Tequila Girls
1980 Pignose 1,5 Brown This has been a pleasant companion through the years !
1982 Roland Cube 40 Orange  
1985 Fender
Sidekick Reverb
15 Black/grey An attempt to find a new ELK. Sold it later to
my English Teacher, Pamela.
1990 Marshall Combo 20 Marshall green Used during the "Selfflying Dwerfelk" sessions.
Too noisy and hummed a lot.
1992 Fender
Blues Deluxe
40 Tweed Excellent amp ! Just the right tone for me. Had to sell it to
pay the rent, though. Sorry ´bout that.
1999 Danelectro
Nifty Fifty
15 Yellow Excellent amp ! Small,rugged and reliable.
It has a warm tone and it plays
loud enough for monotoring my guitar on stage . Nowadays I run my guitar through a Line6 Pod directly to the PA and I´m not using any backline amp.
2008 Peavey Classic 20 20 Tweed Excellent amp ! Like a mini version of the Blues Deluxe amp, all tubes, great. Works fine with my Telecasters.
