10.26.13 | I always used Marshall amps. I honestly don't know any gear bellow 5 watts. |
UnnamedOcean
10.26.13 | Why would you want something below 5 watts? You can just get a 15 watt amp and turn it down, plus it will sound way better. |

10.26.13 | @unnamedocean smaller wattage makes it so you can get nice break up and tube saturation at bedroom volumes. Turning the volume down on a 15 watt tube amp defeats the entire point of owning a tube amp. |
UnnamedOcean
10.26.13 | Redsky, it doesn't defeat the purpose. I look for clean tone in an amp before anything else - not everyone wants a really
saturated tube tone all the time. |
UnnamedOcean
10.26.13 | But menawati, if you want the breakup, just get a Vox. |
sniper
10.26.13 | i agree with redsky |
menawati
10.26.13 | unnamed - i got an old Mesa Boogie 30 watt its unusable at home too loud it's for the reason redsky said that i want a really small amp, i dont mind of there isnt much clean headroom |
Athom
10.26.13 | If you want more vintage tones then I'd say try out that vox or for around the same price you can nab an old silverface Fender champ. For more modern tones take a look at the Blackstar HT-5. and if you just want a head the 5 watt epi's sound great for their low price or you can always nab a pico on the low. |

10.26.13 | I have a 5 watt fender champion 600. its very good for blues. |

10.26.13 | Dude get a Mesa mini Recto. |
Madbutcher3
10.26.13 | Try an Orange or you could get an amp w/ variable wattage like a Laney Ironheart |
menawati
10.26.13 | "or you could get an amp w/ variable wattage like a Laney Ironheart"
yes the attraction of the vox is that its got variable wattage 4w, 1w and 0.25w, guess i just need to go try one |
bloc
10.27.13 | Check out Blackheart amps too. They have a Killer Ant which is just 1 watt, and a 5 watt Little Giant. |
GmemberKills
10.27.13 | The Roland cube 15 is nice. Got a few different effects an a power squeeze function so you jam at really low volumes. Would be perfect unless you really want that 5watt. |
ChuckyTruant
10.27.13 | What style of music are looking to play with the amp menawati? |
ChuckyTruant
10.27.13 | "Dude get a Mesa mini Recto."
Dude it's the loudest 25w watt amp on the market. |
menawati
10.27.13 | just want something I can get some basic warm sounding clean and overdriven sounds on chucky, doesnt need to cater for metal as can always use a pedal for that |
Madbutcher3
10.27.13 | One of the smaller Oranges can do that
Try a Micro or Tiny Terror I suppose |
ChuckyTruant
10.29.13 | Yeh I'd go dark terror or tiny terror |
