Diezel Lil Fokker 100W
935 GBP
- footswitch included
- visual condition ok, has some scratch on tolex on the side but nothing serious. 2 screws on the back panel are missing as in photo
- JJ KT77 matched power tubes bought in Tube-Town Germany on 22.11.2017, biased 30mA though it depends on wall socket voltage as it varies

2 channel amp
I think it is the closest amp to the VH4 I had (I also had/have Dmoll, Herbert, Einsteins).
Compared to VH4:
- less bass, more mids-oriented, smoother highs, fuzzier
- punchier, tighter, yet not so dry as VH4 if it makes sense...
- its like vh4 ch3, brighter with a little of Orange amps

While I like aggressive attitude of this amp, I prefer Einstein (actually I like it the most), which is less middy and more modern than Fokker or VH4.
Nice amp, but not my cup of tea.

Peavey 6534+h
655 GBP
USA version, needs step down transformer from 230V to 110V, tranformer not sold with the amp
Power tubes: JJE34L, preamp: mix of EHX and China AFAIR, I made it more vintage with tight end
Visual: overall it looks ok. I dont have original screws for back panel "mesh"/grille, so I will use other ones.

I have another one - euro version, it is just more convenient to be honest so I am keeping euro one, bought both because I wondered if there is any difference, there is none.

IMHO really nice amp, I have a lot of amps in my collection but 6534, new DSL and Blackmore are the amps for chugging.
You can even get nice, a bit more modern jcm800-like sounds if gain is set low.
I think it sounds quite nice with Shecter Loomis - heard it once, bought both guitar and amp

it has some noise, not really disturbing, I have 2 sucha maps and it seems like 5150 is a little noisy

It does pop a bit when channel is switched, I am usually switching before tuning standby mode, then it is quiter.
It seems like other people have similar issue.

Randall RD100
405 GBP
- footswitch included
- works ok, though has little pot scratching
- visually it has some bumps and scratches on tolex. Tried to show it on photos with yellow circles. 
BTW.There are some sweat marks on the amp - took photos with flash lamp so it exposes such things.
It just looks ok overall, but it is not in perfect visual condition.

Quite loud amp to be honest, though I had RD20 in the past and it was also loud.

Sound: quite tight, edgy, middy but also a little hollow, randall-tube-like distortion. I liked RD20, sold it and bought RD100 again as I expected a bit more low end and so on from 100W head.

I've bought many nice, rare amps since I had RD20 and to be honest now RD100 does not interest me as much as in the past, it sounds ok, but not as cool as some other amps I have, IMO, it is as simple as that.
