I've gotten into using an old Mesa single leg gas-filled amp tilt back stand. It clamps to the top of your amp and is adjustable for how long it is, thus setting the tilt back angle. I play in a large "Big Band" with a full sax, trombone, and trumpet section, and I'm at the rear of the stage. So it helps to angle my amp up to project over the band.
I wish Mesa hadn't discontinued this device, I've gotten quite attached to mine and nobody makes anything like it anymore.
The Amp Stand tilt back system is cool, it's a triangle that sets up with nylon straps and is pretty solid to lean the amp against, and both of these systems keep the bottom edge of the amp in contact with the stage, so I get good bottom end sound. I really dislike the amp stands that elevate the amp. It takes the 'umph' out of my tone.
Anyone else out there tilt their amp back?
