  • Wat clean breakup mini tube combo should I get?

    Looking at the Vox AC4. Looking around, the current model doesn't have options to choose between wattage. I would be looking for classic rock or bluez toanz. If you have any metal recommendations, that would be cool too.

    Clint I love the Peavey Classic 20h. The amp goes from Jazz cleans to Metal. The back is very feature full, you can do anything with it. I have the head going through a 1x15 Celestion cab. I haven't played the combo but the head is amazing. The Peavey Classic 20h with a cab is one option. If you want something with cool breakup. Look around for a used Fender Excelsior.

        That Peavey sounds insane. It has the amount of power and range of tones that I'm looking for. I might have to get it. I would be able to plug it into my 1x8 or my 2x12. It even has the extra recording features. Great!

        I got it. I wasn't expecting a recommendation to be that good. Thx so much.

            Yeah, they are cool little beasts. I got mine believe it or not on Walmart.com for $100 less than MF, GC or Sweetwater were selling them.

              Isn't that just cheap clone of Blackstar HT-5?

              My friend has one and I really haven't find lot of "clean breakup" in it. It's good amp for loud rock/metal tones or really clean though.

                Did you watch the video?

                I started to post the Guitar Max video, but he doesn't do a lot of clean breakup

                That guy from Sweetwater went thru the range of the amp with just a guitar into the amp

                  ^ I thought it sounded real good. I'm just more of a bluezman at heart so I went with the Peavey. I couldn't find any demos of them pushing the clean channel, but I'm real optimistic it.

                      I love the little Peavey Classics
                      My buddy as a Classic 30 and there just ain't a bad tone in it

                      The Bugera is a copy of the Blackstar HT5
                      There is a 20 watt version as well but it doesn't have the same features as the smaller one does

                        No. I have played HT-5. Wasn't really my thing, but my friend who's more into 80's style tones really likes it.

                          Yeah it's a point for point copy of the Blackstar
                          I like mine

                          Take a minute
                          Watch the video

                          Like I said he gets a nice range of tones from this amp

                          Clean breakup is among them

                          I like mine

                          The speaker emulated headphone/line out is awesome if you need lower stage volume but want more actual volume thru a PA

                            Not a combo but none of them will touch the PRS MT 15 for cleans. Pristine with the boost off killer slight breakup tones with the boost pulled. Some country tinged stuff from last Sunday at Church with mine running a Keeler Push OD at very low gain here for just a tounch of extra compression and hair.
                            Then there is the facemelting metal monster on the other side! Just don't try to use these amps as low volume bedroom amp while they are small and compact these are stage killers not bedroom amps!! My 50 watt full size heads are easier to control at low volumes than this thing is but tone and volume wise it will hang with bout anything!!

                              PRS MT 15 cleans no effects. No other lunchbox head cleans I have played are on the same planet.
