Favorite Practice Combo Amp?

[JumpMarine]

What's your favorite(small, 15 watts or less) combo that's less than $200 new? I'm thinking about picking something up to tinker with at night. I miss being able to plug in headphones to my Vox AD60 head since I sold it. I had thought about a Tone Port, but thought that it might be nice to be able to also use the item as a preamp for another amp as well.

UNDER $200.00 used . . . for me would be :


Valve - Blues Jr.

S/S - Peavey Bandit (kinda have a soft spot for this lil' SS)

Oh bugger, the Bandit is 80Watts Transtube, so it doesn't count i s'pose, but it still is a small'ish amp though !

Marshall Lead 12.

But lately, I've just been using my Vox AD50 through a Behringer Ultra-G in to my 4-Track and listening through headphones that way.

I just got off the phone with Ted Brown Music and they have a Vox AD15VT for $179. Think I'll pick it up to try out.

The Hughes & Kettner Edition Blue 30 is only around $150. I have the Blue 60 and love it. I don't really need the 60 watts, so the 30 would be great. Its strong point is the cleans, but it has a headphone jack and CD input also.

Man that's reasonably priced, wish there was one locally to try out.
