ok so um amp help again

gimmie a an amp, that has a great clean tone...a decent yet maybe below avg overdrive, since ill be running my DS-2 and TS9 through the clean tone...something with a basic clean tone, i dont need that blues stuff (hot rod deville although im looking at it)

i prefer tube but solid state will be fine...something 800$ or less...i want 50-75 watts...some amps are switchable from 15watts to 50watts, thats cool...most likely it will be a combo amp...2 10inch, 2 12inch, or 4 10inch speakers...not 1 speaker

i prefer something new too, not off ebay

thanks,
joe

    its in musicians friend and american music supply magazines and usually on sale. I don't feel like running to find the technical name now...

    do you need a speaker cab too, or just an amp?

    do you want only new amps, or would you consider something used?
  • the twin? isnt that 1100?
    no no no its just 100.

    tis a twin though... cant remember the length.. eventually ill get around to getting the technical name for you

    Well, you'll laugh at me for suggesting it, but... Peavey TransTube, but NOT TransTube EFX.

    I listed ebay auctions because for what you want, you're not going to find much of anything in your price range.

    Good luck though :)

    Why do you need more than one speaker? that alone is going to cut into your budget in a big way.
  • because i like the sound of 2 speakers or 4 speakers better than 1....1 sounds like it has no balls to me

    A good 1x12 combo can sound as good if not better than just about anything...and they record much better too.

    Just a thought. Go for what you know man. You live in NY...there's a TON of good shops in the city where you could try out some used gear ;)

    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.
