mincer is right, i dont "need" a 2X12 with 60 watts. id be better off with 40 or so watts in a 1X12, cause that i could force to break up at low volume, i could also get a cab if i needed to later on. so whats a good 40 watt (30-50) 1X12 that i can get POWER TUBE DISTORTION at BEDROOM volumes, and if not bedroom than low. the lower the better

Honestly, for bedroom level power tube distortion, you need something like 5 watts...my Mesa Blue Angel is 18 watts, and gets insanely loud before it breaks up...but when it does...swoon..Administrator of the SDUGF

yea, while 5 watts is fine for bedroom, i also need it for bandpractices,rehersals, and the occasional gig. most places done provide a pa to amp ur guitar, and i dont have money to buy a pa.Godin SDXT - 59-ClassicStack-JB

is 15 class A tube watts into a 12" speaker enough to gig/rehearse on? the ampeg J12T, V-series V1512, and the blues junoir, (and gibson goldtone) are alll this setup.
my other choice is the classic 30. im hopefully gonna go to a few shops this wekend and play them all.Godin SDXT - 59-ClassicStack-JB
