hey guys, im looking to buy a new amp but not sure what to get. right now im just using a small fender champion 30, i have a fender strat and am looking for an amp a bit bigger to use for different kinds of rock music. Any suggestions? also, i'm curious to know what kinds of amps you guys use anyway. thanks

well I play on a Roland Jazz chorus amp , and it's really a lot of fun to play with! i personally dont have any pedals (yet), since I just started on guitar...but it's a really good amp that has nice sound. I'll try and get the model number for you.

I just use a Fender amp, can't remember the wattage off the top of my head. I use a Zoom 707II pedal so I don't need effects on my amp. :)

Peavey Envoy 110
And very soon im getting a 4x12 cabinet and head. Cant wait :D

Oooh wow, very nice. What model are you getting?

Not 100% I am low on cash so it will be poor gear. Only for practicing with the band. When I get it I will post it in this thread.

One of the people in my band's father has an entire recording studio in his house. So I've played on quite a few Marshall stacks.

Meh, hopefully im getting an Ibanez Rg 350dxwh for christmas and some Boss pedals.

Sounds good, the Fender amp probably has nice sound. What's a Hamer Telecaster?

Whatever head you decide to buy, make sure you get the Carvin Legacy speaker cab for it. 4 12-inch Vintage 30's and metal grill.. looks nice and sounds nice with just about anything.
As for heads, i havent played too many but the Legacy head has quality sound (800$ last time i checked) and the Peavey 5150 is a great power amp with crazy nice sound (900$).
I'm planning on getting the 5150 within a few months.

i use Laney 120W amp. It has a HardCore signed in it's name but it
hase nothing common with hard core. It is rather from blues to hard rock
overdrive. It has a built in effect processor. 3xDelay, 2xChorus, 2xReverb,
1xOctaver + combinations - Chorus+Reverb, Delay+Reverb. I have not
enough money to buy the amp i realy would like to have JCM 900 :confused:
And for guitar i use flame :) made in poland. Check it out

Indeed...
Peavey 5150 Head- 120W, Rhythm and Lead channels, high and low gain inputs, master resonance and presence levels for both channels.
Carvin Legacy Cabinet- 4 Celestion Vintage 30 speakers.. 240W at 16ohms.
Planning on getting a Digitech S200 effects processor, since the 5150 has no effects.

I like acoustics b/c no amp needed, but for my crappy electric i have like a mini mega amp thingy... pretty crappy but gets the job done with the crappy electric.
