Ok, so, with me being in a serious project now that is going to be going on a give or take 20 city tour this summer, the old Crate head just isn't cutting it anymore, especially if we're going to playing any more record company showcases....I need a more defined, louder sound.
Budget: $700-900, give or take. I don't mind buying used. A cab can wait...so you don't need to factor that in.
The sound I'm looking for: Loud, saturated gains but not too saturated. Feedbacky, but still has enough clarity to be understood. I want a loud and dirty rock and roll machine, basically. I play punk rock. Two channels are a must!
I found the JCM 800 not to be gainy enough (granted i didnt have my pedal in front of it), and I found the JCM 2000 to be far too nu-metal for my tastes. I want to try a JCM 900, but can't readily find one in the area.
Currently, my two main guitars are a fender tele w/hot rail in the bridge and a schecter PT with a JB/59 combo, if that helps. I also have a BOSS drive zone (you know, the pedal with a bunch of different distortions).
Your help is greatly appreciated!
