Question Best Practice Amp

Hey guys!

I been using a Marshall DSL401 Amp, Gives me all the tone I'm looking for and if you decide to play onstage, you can plug in a 4 x 12 Cab like the 1960a and boy is it loud~!!

Re: Best Practice Amp

Is it going to be used primnarily as a just you amp? or you plus drums , bass etc.....if its just you 50 watts is way overkill, and personally I'm not a fan of marshalls solid state amps period, there are much better offerings in terms of price,features,and overall sound, flick made a grweat suggestion with the micro cube, vox also has some excellent small moddeling amps, I prefer the vox as you have greater control over the effects. I have a marshall JTM-60 as my main amp, and a vox DA-15 as a practice/noodling around the house amp.

i was hoping for something flexible.. something midway.. something that can be just a "me" amp but can also be a band amp.. .. any suggestions PLEASE

about solid state/valve vs tube amps etc.. PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME.. what is the difference and why is the tube amp generally prefered among the two? .. also, what is the most affordable tube amp that marshall offers?

help please
