Verellen Meatsmoke + Ampeg SVT CL

I once borrowed a full Meatsmoke stack for a punk show and it was amazing. It cost as much as a used Toyota Camry and IMO worth every penny.

FWIW, the two guitarists I was with were both using Mesa dual rectos as was the guitarist of the Meatsmoke's owner and the drum kit had the kinda typical low tuned Tama tone of the '00s.
 
Wow, I bet that was fun to get your hands on that stack! I managed to buy one of the preamp pedal versions today. I own an SVT CL and I'm excited to see what kind of new tones and overdrive sounds I can get by combining forces. Since Verellen isn't making new gear anymore, I figured this will be the closest I can get to a full on Meatsmoke head. Verellen gear is looking pretty scarce online. I'm sure folks are not eager to let go of it.

Last I check they aren't making anymore so it will be tough finding one
