Hey guys umm i have been looking everywhere for a decent concert amp for my starter guitar. Me and my band are wanting to play a concert but bothe guitarist don't have good enough amps not loud enough either. If anyone has a fairly big amp that would work great for conert shows please tell me. :thumbup:



Thanx: Db

Marshall Half Stack maybe.................

All tube is the way to go

Well, it matters dude...

1) What style of music do you play, if you play like alot of
rock and grunge and **** you should probably get
a non tube amp with just a good clean, basicly no
soul in the amp, and then put some good pedals on it
like a tubescreamer or whatever there using now.

If your playing like blues or something with alot of soul,
get a good tube amp, I use a 410 super reverb
with stock tubes, it rocks, but marshal has this
valvetronix amp, and its ****ing sweet.

2) Price.... If your gonna get anything under 412 go with a
combo amp, alot of guys like to use a head and cab just
to look cool, but when your touring and you dont have
a crew to load **** for ya, the cool dies fast, if you dont have alot of money just a get a decent 112, 212 crate,
remember, at the end of the night there not gonna say
wether your amp rocked or not, its wether you rocked,
Ive seen videos of srv's gear dieing out and he grabed
a cheap 110 peavey amp and still totally rocked the joint.

I use my Mesa Boogie Triple rectifier for everything....I swear by these amps....from clean to crunch this is the best amp I ever owned.

I'm gonna say go fro Fender, Get a second hand RocPro 1000 or a stage 100. They go for peanuts. The RocPro is a hybrid (woohoo it's got a valve in) and the stage 100 is solid state, both great amps for the money

thanx alot guys!
