  Matchless CH-112 Chieftain - "What a clean tone" - iamqman

  

  These amplifiers are priced new riding around $2600 which in my opinion is a lot of money for a single channel amplifier. However this amplifier will get you a great sounding tone and a lot better sound than you would have of most Fender amplifiers. Overall this is a great sounding combo with matchless Celestion speaker. If you need a good combo...

  Orange Amps [Crush PiX Series] CR20LDX - "Nice little practice amp!" - heads on fire

  

  Overall, this is a good choice in a cool practice amp. This gets louder than comparable models from Line 6 or Fender, and it has a much nicer look. However, that look does come with a price premium - some people might think it is worth it. It certainly is a great look, and I love that they offer it in both orange and black models now. This amp i...

  Mesa Boogie [Rectifier Series] Trem-o-Verb Combo - "Was my go to amp for 2 decades..." - loudfunk

  

  This amp proofed to be super reliable and roadworthy. The only issues I had in 20 years was a bad reverb pan, and a blown screen resistor because of a power tube failure. I should also mention that even before my warranty had expired I had a tech add a bias control and ran the bias a bit hotter with the EL34s than were Mesa with their unadjustab...

  65amps London 112 Combo - "Pretty much stupendous" - James...

  

  In overall I give it an 8. It doesn't do metal and some might not find the headroom they are looking for but none the less, it is truly a remarkable amp. I chose this amp for several reasons. 1) It sounds better than any other amp i could get my hands on. And I had my hands on quite a few. Almost went with a /13 but after a side-by-side comparis...

  Bugera [Vintage Series] V22 - "Nice little combo" - James...

  

  The price on these is unbelievable. I understand they used to cost a bit less. But it's still worth what they want now for the clean channel alone. Mine has been super reliable and easy to dial in no matter what the situation. This is not a particularly loud 22 watts, but it isn't quiet either. With certain speakers it gets a lot louder. I...

  Fender [G-DEC Series] 3 Thirty - nickname009

  

  The G-DEC, while intentionally marketed towards teachers/students/just learning guitar players or not, this amp is definitely built for that. There's a lot of presets and a lot of built in songs to play around with and learn with, however these aren't full songs, they're more like loops. Though you can upload your own songs I believe. Overall it...

  Budda [Superdrive Series II] 18 Combo 1x12 - "A fat hazy awesome amp" - James...

  

  I think these are a tremendous value. I have sat this thing next to a TopHat Supreme 16 and a matchless spitfire. It hangs with both of them no problem. Try one of these. It's shocking how under the radar budda is considering the value. These are well built reliable amps.

  Fender [Frontman Series] FM 25R - Black - "Too limited." - heads on fire

  

  I just think Fender can do better than this. It seems like they're skating by on name recognition and cosmetics. This amp isn't nearly as versatile as a comparable Line 6, so I can't recommend it.

  Budda Verbmaster - "Whoah it's back" - James...

  

  I love this thing. Most amps with reverb these days are garbage but this one has it all worked out. Budda has come up with something really special in the verbmaster. I'm a sucker for anything remotely vox inspired, and while this is a bit more on the rocker side from your typical AC30, it can cover all that ground.

  Soldano Custom Amplification Atomic 16 - "Lil' screamer." - King Loudness

  

  All in all I think the Soldano Atomic 16 is a great little amp for someone who wants that awesome Soldano hi gain tone at a lower volume and in a smaller package. It lacks many of the features of higher wattage/priced amps but it sounds quite good considering these supposed drawbacks. It sells new for about $1,200 for the reverb loaded model (a ...
