What was the first amp you ever bought?
 
My first bought amp was a mid 70's Crate combo that actually looked like a wood crate. The speaker blew the first month so the warranty covered a replacement which turned out too be a Fender stamped replacement.
Sounded better and never blew up again. I have the thing to this day(couldnt give it away). Its got sterile tone and does a Horrible gain sound but does sound quite good with a modeler in front for low volume home jammin.
My first amp I had given to me(Christmas) was a 70's Fender Vibro Champ. God I wish I still had that little wonder.

The first amp i had was a Frender Frontman... small little thing with a 8 inch speaker i think... i took the amp it's self out of the cab, and put it on top of two big as house speakers i got from my grandma's barn, lol they had a huge bass speaker a mid range and a tweeter, lol it sounded really good amazingly, then when moving it arounf one day i shorted somthing an blew the board... i was heartbroken, then a bought a Randall
