          What about a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe?

            That one might even verge on over-sold. There are a zillion of them.


            My vote would go to any Music Man amp you'd care to name...more than just a great clean sound, the dirt makes for a nice crunchy rhythm tone.

            Certainly no worse than any other tube/ss hybrid amp I've ever heard with ss components in the preamp.

              Well, there are lot of Fender Blues Juniors sold out there, but it's still underrated in my opinion.

              People usually think because they're not expensive, as one would expect Fender tube amp to be, that they are not that good.

              I find them quite pleasing for the price.

                        Basically everything made by Traynor is criminally underrated IMO.

                              I'm not sure that the Morse is underrated. Everyone I read of or encounter loves them...I like mine more than my VH4.
                              Gravity...its just a theory
