  1. Well, I always try to find my gear used or discounted, so that's hard to say. I wouldn't want to go much over $700. If that was for a new amp, I know that my options would be severely limited, but I doubt I'm going to get a brand new amp. Sometimes you see the odd deluxe reverb or something going at $600 or whatever, so I keep my eyes out for stuff like that. I'm pretty much all set now, and I know what to look for. Thanks to everyone who responded. You have lots of options if you can spend $700. Its a strong buyer's market and you could buy pretty much any amp mentioned in this thread with $700. Just shop Craig's list hard. A couple of months ago I bought a custom color Prosonic with a road case for $500. The deals are out there.
  2. What is your budget?
  3. For sure. I have a Classic 30 head (modded for 8 ohms instead of 16) through a 1x12 loaded with an Emi Cannabis Rex. It's my cute little micro-stack that is *HOLY {censored} LOUD*. Great cleans, awesome amp overdrive. I run mine into a 2-10 cab with an Emi Ragin cajun and an Emi Ramrod. It makes a huge sound for such a small rig.
  4. I looked at the Supersonic, but it seems like that's another tier up from the ones I've been looking at, price-wise. A lot of people have suggested the Peavey Classic series now, so I'll make sure to check that out. Classics are great classic rock amps. I think the Classic 30 should be in the working musician's amp hall of fame, if there were such a thing. I don't know if you're into the head + cabinet thing but if you are, the Classic 30 head sounds great thru a nice cab. I have one and it screams thru a good sounding cab. You can usually pick one up for around $250.
  5. OP, It seems you like the idea of a 2 channel amp for gigging. If so, you should consider a Prosonic. Best hi gain Fender ever did, IMO, along with an awesome sounding clean channel. It has an effects loop, which may or may not be a big thing for you. if you opt for a Hot rod series amp, try to avoid the older ones with the volume pot issues. They will go from whisper quiet to insanely loud with a very small turn of the volume knob. I used to gig with one and it was very hard to dial in an appropriate volume. Also consider the Supersonic series. Check out the 22 watt Supersonic. I think its a much better choce than the Hot Rod or Blues series of amps.
  6. Here is my Rivera thirty twelve with a few pedals.
  7. Originally posted by Dave Owens sure enough..that was the album that pulled apart to show the inside of the car door all suff with weed.( like it was being smuggled into the usa).. never did use the paper..becasue every version I saw of it the rolling paper happend to be missing for some strange reason.. Yep, I had that album and it was bull{censored}. I pulled the panels off my mom's car door and there wasn't any weed in there at all. Damn funny album though.
  8. A Holmes, as in John Holmes. Hog, hog leg, Marley, fatty, bone, heater, fat one, Actually, I just had some good stuff earlier, topped off by a Belgian (sp,wtf) beer called a Duutchess. It was tasty! Now I sit back, do a little internet surfing and crank up some Frank Marino and MaHOGany Rush. Oooh yeah. I don't know why, but Frank is always better with a little bud happening along with. I wonder if Frank himself feels the same way?
