I just got the Fender Rumble this year, so I don't feel it's wise to sell it already. I think if I do this, I will sell the whole rack with exception of the LH1000 and just keep it as a backup amp.
If I got the Ampeg, it would be my main practice and gigging amp.

The Fender rumble was supposed to be my quick and easy option for a portable gigging rig and the LH1000 was my at home, smooth as f*%& practice/recording amp. LH1000 Rack with 2 sansamps, Korg Pitchblack, DBX 160A, Furman There's just no need to have multiple setups.
If I spend the money to get this head, I will have to downgrade some o fmy gear. I've also read that the higher end valves the heritage uses come out to about $400, so you really are only paying $200 bucks for thicker copper, wiring, and circuit-boards. Though I would normally just go with the cheaper clone, in this case it seems the more expensive version has way less returns, complaints, repairs, and retains its value more online. I did a lot of reading over comparisons between the Heritage version and the regular (which is $600 difference for same amp). I've been eyeballing the Ampeg SVT-CL Heritage.

I dipped my toe in abck in the day with the V series ampegs and a loud-ass Sunn I sometimes regret selling, but I never touched Traynor (okay, okay, the most famous traynor is a plexi, but the other mdoels are unique and interesting), Selmer, Sound City, Hiwatt, Matamp or Orange. A lot of the big amp competition (other than Laney) had its own thing going and I want to build that library of tones. I thought I was done with E元4s when I sold my last superlead 5 years ago, but truth is I was just done with vintage Marshall. Its funny, they basically sue the same components, just in a completely different arrangement. The Selmer has so little in common with the traynor that I expect she will sound completely different. I don't really need 4 ac30 type amps anyway, whereas a second flavor of el34 50 watter will be fun. I think I will be needing to restore the 70s Arbiter AC30 and sell her though. Maybe it wil bridge the gap between superleads and bandmasters/bassmans. It seems a lot like a blackface fender with british tubes on paper. I just got a deal from a friend on a '65 Selmer Treble N Bass 50 (shes a bit hacked up inside with a replaced power transformer and a switch to diode rectification like a mk3 TnB to accomodate the lack of center tap on the replacement tranny) so I'll be seeing what that's all about. I'm kinda envisioning a rig that's a bit like a POD only with legit gear LOL I am seeing the traynor (which I finally finished servicing and tweaking internally to deliver a real early orange/hiwatt type sound), my matchless, maybe a blackface fender bandmaster for clean cleans and something stupid high gain like a soldano, EVH or orange so I have a real variety of flavors.
I am kinda envisioning myself getting another head or 2 in the near future just to use all 4 head loops. Finally I can MIDI switch up to 4 different heads into 1 cabinet thus forcing me to justify it by joining a gigging local band in the new year. I called Ultrasound who distributes them exclusively and arranged a better price I swore not to repeat. Egnater SS4 head switcher has become my x-mas gift.
