MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
something around the £80-90 mark.
thought about the Orange Crush PiX 20L.
anything else to look at?
I have a Peavey Backstage 10, which works pretty well.
I've got a Vox VT20+ and it's a cracking little amp. Sounds good, has lots of different amp models ( so your lad can experiment and figure out what he likes) and has some reasonable in-built effects. Best thing is that you can properly turn it up to get some good overdrive but the attenuator "power-level" thing means it can still be at a perfectly neighbour friendly volume.
It depends on whether your son wants on-board effects or separate effects pedals.
If the former, Fender do the Mustang 1, which I tried out in a shop, and sounded pretty good. However, I wanted to use external effects, so went with the simpler Peavey amp.
Roland Microcube. Small, loud, fantastic amp model tones from clean to mosh, chorus, tremolo, reverb, cd/mp3 input for jamming and it runs on batteries if your son decides to be a busker rather than a lawyer 🙂
I've got a Roland cube 15. nice and loud, couple of effects built in.
has separate effects pedals, just another amp. He has an old amp that is past its best sound wise.
will look at those mentioned thanks.
I thought this looked quite good from a quick browse on the Andertons site:

Otherwise I also quite like the little Vox amps.
