  • What's the Best Affordable Head for Good Cleans?

    Ok, I have a 4 x 12 cab that I need a head for. I love the sounds of Fender cleans esp. the Hot Rod series.(I don't think they make Hot Rod heads though). I kinda wanna go with the Fender's but I don't know which head will get me close to the HRD sound. Help!

        dont be ashamed of trying out the lesser known fender heads such as the showman and bandmaster...they're loaded with tone. Showman is essentially a twin in head form, bandmaster is 10 watts less than a bassman-breaks up sooner.

        You want great cleans, go for the showman-more wattage, more headroom, sparklier and more pristine cleans.
