Hi There guys,
Alright so my deal is, i'm after a new guitar amp. I've had numerous marshall hybrid and solid state amps, and a few other brand amps around. But I think i'm over solid state period, and am interested in going all tube, but i think i could settle for hybrid if i can't quite afford the all-tube.
The style my band currently plays is somewhat progressive rock and alternative (pink floyd, jeff buckley, stereophonics) so a preferably good/great clean channel is required and distortion at least capable of a decent rhythm tone. I'm going for a big muff for lead roles.
From my research, i've found myself intruiged by the fender hot rod deluxe (40-watt, 1x12) seems to be the go due to its excellence in its clean, not so much distortion.
What are peoples thoughts on this amp, and or is there a better option than this amp?
Am only interested in combos and not stacks, preferably anything that can handle a small crowd which by other means, would be mic'd.
Budget - $800USD give or take, am willing to go second hand.
Appreciate any thoughts!
