To get one of these four amps, which one do you get and why?

Buy Fender Mustang II 40W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp | Solid State Combo Amps | Musician's Friend

Buy Orange Amplifiers Crush PiX Series CR35LDX 35W 1x10 Guitar Combo Amp | Solid State Combo Amps | Musician's Friend

Buy Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC 20W Tube Guitar Combo Amp | Tube Combo Amps | Musician's Friend

Buy Fender Super Champ XD Guitar Combo Amp | Hybrid Combo Amps | Musician's Friend

Just curious to see which one everybody would buy, I think I'd personally go for the Jet City myself, with it having just a slight edge over the Fender amps

How about a few more $$, and get an Egnater Tweaker, or a Blackheart Handsome Devil, instead.

Edit: I got both of these for less than $310, each, shipped.

Kinda unfair as two are SS, one is hybrid, and one is tube...

I suppose the Jet City or Fender Superchamp XD, as I've heard good things.

Oh yeah good point. I threw in the Mustang II because even though it's SS I've heard really good things about it, and I figured anything Orange would be good

Well, I just placed an order for the Jet City.

Why? I like tubes amps, especially ones that are loaded with gain. It has a MV and tube driven reverb. Will I love it? I don't know yet but I surely hope so.

I was seriously considering the Orange. I thought that the Orange had very usable distortion for a solid-state amp. The headphone out is cool with me too.

put the $300 toward the amp you REALLY want.

The Orange is great, but I say go with the Jet City.

What are you planning to use this amp for? Bedroom? Band practice? Small gigs? Giant's Stadium? Also, what sound are you trying to get?

Same here. Love my Super Champ, have had some interest in Jet City since they hit the scene.

 

[mdubya]

I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Jet City.

 

[DrakeZero]

Save the money up for a Phaez amp. But if I had to pick out of that bunch I would go for the Jet City.

 

[Phildog]

I'd get the Jet City.

1) It's a tube amp
2) It's a tube amp
3) I can upgrade the tubes if I wanted to
4) My Greenback would sound great
5) It's a tube amp!!!

LOL
