I tried these:

Fender Deluxe - $770 CDN (Hot Rod)

Traynor 50 Blue - $795 CDN

Traynor YCV40 - $685 CDN

Fender Blues Deville - $1050 CDN

Anyway,

I really like them all :o:o

The Deluxe was awesome, I really liked it!!!

Both Traynors were great too, I'm not sure which one I liked more though??

The Blues Deville was amazing!! but I'm not sure if I wanna spend that much ??

Any thoughts or suggestions????

Again, I'm not planning on buying it until around May, just so I get the right one :) and enough cash ;)

Thanks

    the fenders you mentioned are good amps, but IMO the drive channel is a little weak, they are great amps though

    the 50BLUE has a better OD channel than the YCV (again IMO)
    but the YCV40 has a gorgeous and better clean channel than the 50Blue

    in my rig i have the YCV40WR...and the overdrive is still great in its own, i love it...i use a OCD to push it a little and i use the OCD on its own every once in a while

    im in virginia now visiting my dad and he got a 50BLUE cuz he got a bonus from his company and he wanted to learn guitar...so he got a fender mexican strat and the 50BLUE...ive played with the 50Blue a bit...i personally like the ycv40 better
    you will find that those Fenders will give more of a bluesy sound than the Traynors

    i wouldnt say that the Blues Deville is worth more money than those listed

    I would also check out the Peavey Classic 30 and Delta Blues, you may like that
    on the line of fender check out the new reissue of the Blues Deluxe...i played with it in a store and really enjoyed messing around with it

    personally on the fender line, my favorite amp is the Concert Reverb, pretty pricey but its great...i personally like it a lot because of the chance to switch from 12 watts to 50 watts...but i really like the 59 bassman reissue a lot too...again pricey

    and i know i tell everyone this but i think you will be 100% satisfied with the Traynors...i love them...greatest thing in its price range

    yeah I know the model pretty well, I was looking at that before i got the Traynor...as well as the Deville

    the clean channel on that amp is very nice
    again the OD is soso IMO, maybe you like it but for me it wasnt what I was looking for

    but deffinantly try out those Peaveys
