What are some entry level tuve amps?

Re: What are some entry level tuve amps?

I like the Fender pro junior. I always thought it was a cheaper version of the blues junior but its a totally different machine. it has no master volume and great tone. I wouldnt worry about speaker size. In my opinion different size spearkers really only change volume with similar wattage. 12s sound fuller and 10s do not have as much depth. I would stay away from 8 inch unless you are runnin less than 10 watts

My advice is try all amps in your price range that you can, hybrids, modelers, and also 12" speaker tube amps and then decide what you really want, don't buy blind.

I'll double that... looks like your friend doesn't have quite a clue what he should buy, so it would probably be a good idea to just jump over to a guitar retailer and try a bunch out for a while...
Some good ones have been already named here so he could try those first...

This one only has a 6 inch driver, but it uses a 24" horn....so that may not work, either.

LOL

I declare shenanigans! A champ with a weber sig 8 in it sounds incredible. Some big sound from a small amp.

I believe Kieth Richards use to slave one of those up for distortion on older Stones tracks - one amp was clean and the Champ was dirty, they miced em both.

Laney LC15, all valve and a 10" speaker might be worth a look.

I would imagine that the champ was one of the more common studio amps back in the day.
