Traynor Blue 50 is a great sounding amp. I have heard some clips that have been spectacular.

I'd go for the one through guitar center, if something is wrong you "probably" wouldn't be ****ed, and you can buy it outright for $499.

I would If I had $500 to sit on, I would in a HEARTBEAT.

900's are great, you have to just get one of the right models! The rest kind of suck!! Me and ErikH here on the board both have a 90-92 model 2100 and LOVE them!!!! I have owned a Peavey XXX, Marshall 2555SL "slash" and guess which one I still have? Yup, the 900 model 2100!!!! Make sure it is between a 90-92 model though!

Re: i got the $600 bucks what amp????????

Listen to Ted Nugent - Cat Scratch fever. Thats what they sound like with low-medium gain and vintage output pickups.
 
Re: i got the $600 bucks what amp????????

If you want an amp that can give you pure metal at bedroom levels, and also be able to be as loud as a 100W Marshall, get a used Line 6 HD147. Most L6 or Vox modeling rigs are better for the situation you're in. At least you'll still be able to have heavily distorted tone at a level that won't have your family freaking out.

but are these amps the same quality sound?? do they sound like a tube amp?
thats the thing i really want a tube amp!!!!
 
Re: i got the $600 bucks what amp????????

A Line 6 HD147 will treat you right!!!!

Also, I must agree with the 50w blue traynor!!!
 
Re: i got the $600 bucks what amp????????

The won't sound like a tube amp at all.

The clips aren't of my XXX, so it wouldn't really help. It's all done with my V-amp2.

Here's a clip of the 5150 with a nice thick heavy sound and great articulate; while not the heaviest, it'll give you an idea of it's tone.
