That wall is growing, how long till the wife starts bitching at you to downsize?

Bitching will commence if a third cab enters the house. A fourth amp probably would get no more than an eye roll at this point.

Problem solved... Keep the cabs and just stack heads to the ceiling!

Gibson LP Smartwood (know very little about these, killer guitar though)

Boss TU3
a newer Whammy
OCD
a newer silver Muff I'm not too keen on
MXR Carbon Copy
ISP Decimator

I changed my board and sold some stuff and bought some stuff right after this was taken (yesterday, I know you guys understand)

Peavey 6505/Ampeg v4 ran in stereo with this surprisingly tight (90's? school me on these) ampeg 4x12

i had one of those smartwood LP's for years. it was a really fantastic guitar. i always thought it punched above it's weight as far as price. it's rare to see another one in the wild, so i had to comment.

yep...build Vertically, not horizontally...the vertical space is wasted now anyway, so its actually economical to buy more amps and stack them up to the ceiling. It not only utilises space, but in the winter months thats one wall that will have an added layer of insulation to help keep the heat in the house.

Pretty much my plan at this point. There are SOOOOOO many amps I want, but the cabs I have work just fine. I do kinda want a 1x15, and I could get the one that matches my Earth (minus the fucking badge though), and it's the same size as my other cabs (symmetry is overly important to me), but then we get into the whole horizontal space thing again....

You are a man of wisdom, Sam. I'll be letting the wife know that I'm building an amp wall to protect my family.

Definitely an industrious idea Sam.
How is the cold weather for you down there today, anyhow?

Yea when you already have 2 solid cabs there really isn't any need for more unless you are playing live or record tons of stuff and like changing out all aspects of the gear used.

You know, you can stack cabs too!

I've got a(n empty) 1x15 Ampeg cab you can have if you ever make the drive up 95... First round is on me, buddy!

Yeah - I'm happy with both cabs, although the 'Ampeg' could use a new set of speakers. The focus is definitely on amps before cabs though.

Mini doom monoliths

You're the best kind of people. If by some windfall of circumstance I end up headed that way, I will definitely let you know. And beers/food will be on me if you're handing out free cabs, buddy.
