i think that new VHT rackmount preamp would fit the bill nicely.


or maybe a boogie triaxis.


if your'e set on a head, look at mesa boogie stuff, they seem to be the anti-cola of marshalls.

 

 

Yes, I have concidered racmount stuff, but for my budget it's too expensive. I'd have to buy power amp too -> too expensive. And I think there would be too many controls for my needs. Because of it's price I'm afraid that VHT stuff is not an option.

You guys working together on this one?

Gmajor has two switching jacks, so you won't have to have midi. If you did need midi, I'd go for an egnater TOL 100 - four channel, all tube head. shared eq on two pairs of channels, but still an awesome amp. Or a JSX, Mesa dual recto 3 channel too. Lots of other options too.

You should definately check out the Peavey JSX. It`s a great three channel amp head. Great clean, great crunch and a singing high gain lead channel.

I`m partial to Boogie 2x12 cabs. I think they are great speaker cabs. Super, solid build and fierce tone. You could also check out Bogner, Genz Benz, Carvin(great bang for buck value), Earcandy, Avatar.

G Major only has one switching jack, but two relays. You need a Y cable to make it work to its full potential with the recto.

Don't get the Mesa Mark IV, channel 1 and 2 share the bass and mid EQ knobs. They're too hard to tweak. I will never sell mine because it took so long to tweak so now I HAVE to keep it.;)

Now for the XXX and JSX suggestions? I dig the JSX... great cleans and great crunch stuff. Any amp with a good clean channel and a great gain channel is versatile in my book. Sometimes versatile is code for lots of gadgets or get a G Major.

Of course there's good replies too, but many suggest gear that I IMO have made very clear in my first post I don't want.

 

One big deal is my budget. I have thought, that I'd raise it and then think again.
