I presently own a Marshall JCM 800 50w 2x12 combo which I purchased in early eighties. I don't play in bands anymore - only play in my music room/studio in my basement (primarily recording). The Marshall is no longer being used since I can't exactly open it up to get a decent sound anymore (wife, kids, neighbours). I'm also thinking more about versatility. What I need is something smaller (perhaps 30w 1x12) which is more practical for home studio use, but which would still cut it in a club setting. As I use a POD currently, I want the real deal for an amp (i.e. it has to be tube-driven). Also, $400-500 US is about my limit. My plan is to trade/sell the Marshall to finance my purchase. I love the Marshall, but it's simply not meeting my present needs.
The guitar guy from one of the local shops recommended the Peavey Classic 30 ($650 CDN - $1.00 US = approx $1.50 CDN).
Anyone have any opinions/recommendations?
Also, how much (ballpark) should my very good condition Marshall fetch?
