I'm completely biased so I voted for Shea's. I'm currently working on a poverty version for a local guy and plan on building one just like Shea's for myself later this year.
Here's what the poverty Tremolux will have:
Hot Rod Deluxe cabinet WGS ET65 12" speaker Classictone PT Hot Rod Deluxe OT Various new/old tubes typical mortatone chassis/board/small parts

And sorry but a 90s bassman RI isn't in the same league as a bf pro. But as usual these things are a popularity contest. I'd say could do an anonymous one in future but lots would know who's rig is who's.
You've never played a 5E9-A, thus you don't know the blasphemy you speak.
I 100% agree about Bassman RI. They have terrible break up. Cleans are ok though. But again, I don't use clean platforms because I have a set of nuts between my legs.
Perhaps. But I've played real tweed bandmaster head, that thing is a beast and total marshall killer. Bf pro cranked and boosted is up there with anything IMO.

All this talk about the mortatrem is almost making me rethink my vote, but for sheer versatility, you still win. And I'm a mainly clean amp platform guy myself.
Y'all don't like the reissue tweed bassman breakup? I remember liking it quite a bit, though I did buy one used at GC that had some issues. It sounded horrible broken up but something was definitely wrong with it.
But the reason I bought that one without cranking it in the store to try it is that I did like the tone of them. Of course I like the tone of the 1987x I used to own as well
