I have been giving a lot of thought to the idea of a different amplifier. For about 3 years, I have been in denial that instead of the mountains of Fenders I've tried and owned, what I actually want is probably a Les Paul and a british style amp.
I have given a pretty close online look at the Blackstar amps, but haven't found the time to go play them yet. Luckily, there is a store in town that stocks them. The same store also stocks Marshall.
I am not looking to crank it and get great rock or metal tone - I am looking more to play it at a reasonable volume, semi-clean, semi-crunchy.
There is a store in town that stocks Orange amps as well. I think that out of Marshall, Blackstar, and Orange, I should be able to find an amp that fits the sound in my head a little better, but I'm curious if there are any amps that either A) would nail what I'm going for, or B) that I haven't thought of.
I'm open to the used game, too. I am in no hurry, and live in a college town, so we see a decent revolving door of music gear on craigslist.
Here's a decent example of what kind of sounds I'm looking for:
