Tube pref.? New/Used/Dont care? Onboard FX? If say get a little fender tube amp and distortion pedal...or something like that.
Doesn't matter in terms of used. I prefer tube, yeah. I'd want an amp with the distortion in the amp itself, pedals aren't my thing. Doesn't need any effects. Just a clean channel and a dirty channel. Preferably able to switch back and forth between the two via pedal.
I just got a used Peavey Delta Blues amp and it's a great amp, its in the Classic 30 family only it has a full range 15" speaker and a footswitchable tremolo built in. It is in excellent shape and is as clean as it can be-nice clean tone and distortion too.

Peavey Classic 30, definitely.
Less than $600, less than 40 lbs. and a good warm distortion tone.
I've been thinking of a vox possibly.
AND...Output jack for extension speakers.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
I find it amazing everyone jumps in with suggestions without knowing your purpose for this amp. Is it specifically for recording?.... playing live?.... or both? My suggestion would depend on how you intend on using this amp. There are amps that I'd prefer to play with live and others I'd prefer for the studio. You're request for an output jack for an extension cab suggests live use, but I don't take anything for granted.
yer ...... the Palomino series is really nice ...... even if it does say Crate on the front.i'ld check out those smaller classA tube amps from crate... like the palomino 30... a very overlooked bargain IMO...
ya' bunch 'o' wussies!!!Well, then I'd concur with the Peavey Classic 30, but the weight of it (and most all-tube amps) are usually pretty heavy to lug around.
