It's the one on top, Traynor YBA-3, 120 watts of pure tube power. It has great overdrive considering it's 35 years old. It has the master volume so I just crank the preamp volume for gain/overdive and set the master accordingly. I'm looking into getting some pedals, the search for great tone never ends. I've secured a Boss DS-1, I'm talking to a guy about buying a vintage MXR distortion + and I'm looking at some Robert Keleey pedals right now.

It's really heavy. I bought it on a whim and I thought it was going to be a short head (like some older mesa mark series) and I was shocked when I saw the size of the damn thing. It's almost as heavy as the VHT and that is, hands down the heaviest amp I've ever had the (mis)fortune of lugging around. Anyways, for $350, I'm very happy.

edit: this same Traynor was the main amp on Cursed's I with a Mesa twin pedal in front on the blues setting.
