hey guys i just got a pod XTlive and its been kind of pointless having 2 modeling amps with it. ive got all the effects and models i could want from the xtlive. i figured it would help my tone even more if i sold my two amps and bought a simple tube combo. Im looking for a under 50 watt tube combo, with fx loop, and i want a decent distortion out of it too. so far ive looked at the traynor ycv 40, fender hot rod deluxe, and the peavey classic 30. id like to spend under 630$. which one of these should i get or recommend me something better. Is selling my modeling amp for a tube amp to go with xtlive a good choice?




thanks
 
Re: amp suggestions

Perhaps look into the Atomic Reactor amps, they're basically a tube power section and speaker cab to go with the modeling preamps.
 
Re: amp suggestions

Those traynor amps sound great, and so do the classic 30's (I almost paid the extra money and bought one of those instead of my Blues Jr.). Dr. Z is another good amp, but you'll have to find a good deal on a used one, because they're a little high (worth the money, just high).
