Members kirs Posted January 28, 2006 Members Share Posted January 28, 2006 Apartment dweller. I have a Roland Microcube which is great for most stuff, but I wouldn't mind a full on valve amp as well. The only options I see in low wattage are the Epiphone Valve series. The Valve Junior might be ok for $120, but are there really any other options? Line-out would be a plus. Cost does not matter as much as good sound and flexibilty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Darkburst Posted January 28, 2006 Members Share Posted January 28, 2006 I like my Crate V8 Palomino. It's 5w, all tube, good quality and fairly inexpensive. I wouldn't say it's versatile, but at lower volumes it gets nice cleans and you can hit it with some pedals for OD or distortion. When cranked it's pretty loud though... and by that I mean too loud for an apartment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kirs Posted January 29, 2006 Author Members Share Posted January 29, 2006 Thanks guys. The ZVex looks really nice. I didn't realize that most mini amps would be heads only. Anyone know if the Minimat is available in the US?http://www.matamp.co.uk/minimat.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fretless Posted January 29, 2006 Members Share Posted January 29, 2006 I would love one of those Zvex amps , I am sure I could put good use to that . I do have a old Kay 703 I got on the bay for $65.00 it just needed fresh caps and sounds amazing and dead quiet , pushing 4 watts almost to loud but super sweet for bedroom tone !
