Hey guys does anyone here have any experience with Fender tube amps?
Since a half stack is out of my range I am thinking of getting a smaller fender amp (40-60 watts). The sound I want is "Early Neil Young" overdriven but not completly distorted. I was kinda thinking of this one:

If anyone can tell me anything It would be greatly appreciated :cool:

Mmmmmm! I love Fender amps! Personally, I like an amp with as little effects as possible, because I like to make my own effects with my pedal. I do use a Fender amp though, however I can't give you much advice as to whether or not you can get your desired sound with that amp.
I'd suggest you just go to a music store and try it out yourself, unless you're lucky enough to know of someone who has played through that amp.

I use no effects I am a pretty stripped down kinda guy, it's either clean or overdrive :)
I can't find that one here in Toronto but I guess I could ask the guy If I could play a similar model thanks hfan!

I've played a few fender amps before.. Not sure if they were tubes or not, but they have a decent sound. Not my cup of tea, but I hear the 'Twin' series has a good reputation..
Make sure you test it out with YOUR guitar, not one that you picked up at the shop. :)
