Okay, here's my entry. Full SS/Analog (well except for a couple of pedals) and and running in stereo. Mosvalve power amp that I cut the ears off, painted and put big rubber feet on to make it more of a table top amp. AMT F1 is the clean Fender style preamp. The JPTR FX Katastrophe is the main dirt box and it is literally always on since it cleans up great with the guitar volume. I also have a Caline Englishman in case I want a different kind of tone. Two Bion boosts. Yes two. First one as kinda your basic boost type thing. Second one I either set up to do that faux fuzz kinda thing, or I set it up to reduce the gain of the Katastrophe for more of a lower crunch. I can also boost that with the first Bion for yet another type of tone. Other pedals are Vox Delaylab, a pitch shift, phaser, Boss OC5, Digitech Ricochet, Flamma Echoverb, JPTR FX Fernweh, looper, eq and a Joyo Gate of Kahn noise gate that I pretty much never use since I hate gates.
Two Emperor 4x12's loaded with the legendary Peavey Sheffield 1290 speakers.

Here's my modest little SS rig I've been using in a Skynyrd tribute. I've used it on everything from festival stages to small clubs and it delivers just fine every time.
1977 Explorer and 1992 LP Junior into what I think is a prototype Roland Blues Cube Artist.
The signal flow is wah - tuner - Mosky XP boost - Caline Englishman - TC Electronics Spark - Carbon Copy - amp.
The amp sits on a Boss stand and the fiddles rest in a ProLine stand. Thats my rig.
