New Amp


What would be the best size amp up from a 10W for a learner and any idea how much it would cost?

Line6 Spider...great effects and a headphone socket to give your Mum and Dad a rest. Best to buy one second hand on e-bay if you want to use up less pennies[img]images/smilies/icon_thumb.gif[/img]

Re: New Amp


Go for a behringer gmx210. They are extremely cheap, have built in effects, and sound great (although ive only had experience with the 212 version). Plus, if you jam with a band, the behringer will have all the power you need for quite a while.

For $349 USD, how the hell can you beat the Carvin SX100?

Re: New Amp


I got more chance of catching rabies. He wants an Epiphone Black Beauty as it is and that £500, so he not only needs to clean it he needs to polish it till it sparkles [img]images/smilies/icon_lol.gif[/img]
