    I played my first gig with more than 20 people in the room in 1969. Two days before, I realized I needed a bigger amp ( I was only 17 then LOL). So I found a "Fender" in the local Penny Saver. Got to the guys house and he rolled out (literally!) a 1 year old Silver Face Twin w/JBL's, with a cover, on wheels. LOL I found out why, it weighed ~80lbs, we joked 1W/lb. LOL I had never played a twin before, and the JBL's didn't mean anything at the time. (The guy was a steel player). I turned it on for the first time 30 minutes before we started. I'm sure everyone knows the rest of that story!! 8) Peace --gary

    For my taste, drip edge Bassman head is the best amp you can get for 1k or less. It’s still a Fender amp, but it’s also a serious hard rock machine. From what I understand, the normal channel in AB165 circuit has an extra gain stage (unlike earlier ones which only had extra gain stage in bass channel). Turn it to about 5, you can pluck lightly and get cleanish Beatles arpeggios, but then bang some chords hard and you’ve got Malcolm Young sound. All without touching your guitar volume or the amp volume. Just the most versatile amp I’ve experienced, and they’re not expensive. Can’t recommend them enough!

In my study I am using a Joyo Bantamp BlueJay (Fender-y one channel amp with a preamp tube/valve - 80 bucks new) and a cheap open back 1x12 with a V30 - it sounds amazing at room levels, takes pedals better than some amps costing 40 times as much) and it can keep up with a moderate drummer. I am usually not into cheap (my big amps are by Fuchs, Amplified Nation, Brunetti, and Matchless), but this is absolutely doing it. It even has a usable effects loop and reacts properly to picking dynamics and the guitar's volume knob.

    Roland Blues Cube Artist, or any of the blues cube line, is/are incredible too. Modeled after 1959 fender bassman. It has great touch sensitivity, sag, compression, and amazing edge of breakup and overdriven tones. They are more than loud enough for gigs but maintain all their tone at apartment bedroom levels. The artist series also takes the tone capsules which actually make a difference. The ultimate blues one turns the amp into something closer to a super reverb with more headroom and tighter bass, and allows the amp to be more of a super clean pedal platform. I can’t recommend these amps enough. The stock amp (without tone capsules) loooves strats and vintage/low output humbuckers and the amp takes pedals super well, especially with the volume (drive) hovering around 6. The tone capsules new are kinda ridiculously priced but I found a used one for like $90. The onboard reverb and trem is okay but there’s an effects loop. I’ll never replace it. It’s also relatively lightweight and built like a tank. It’s served me well for hundreds of live gigs

The creamback helps big time with that top end fizz/sizzle. Run the masters high and the channel volume low. They're really not hard to dial in , and honestly if you can't get the sound you want , sell it. Marshall ain't your thing. I dont mean this as a dig. Marshalls can be very honest and grainy sounding and feel very dry under your fingers. If you want a more refined and "what a marshall sounds in your head and on the records" thing.. look at friedman or a 5150 (crunch channel). One suggestion i do have is don't max the gain . OD 1 at 9 oclock at most and use a boost pedal. OD 2 is to fizzy. Anything past noon gets too mushy and still not enough "grease" under your fingers for that liquidy shreddy soloing stuff.

      @@rocktorrocks 100% the the 40cr... Better voiced amp and better stock speaker.. 2 switchable master volumes. And there is 6 button footswitch you can buy, which is awesome. The first 4 switches are for each of the 4 modes (clean, crunch, od1, od2) and the other 2 are for master and fx loop. The footswitch will remember which master volume and if you have the fx loop engaged or disengaged PER MODE. So u say u setup the 2 master volumes so one is louder than the other. You can hit the button 1 which is "clean". It can be set to loud. Then button 2 "crunch" to be set queiter. (Crunch is louder that clean so u want to use the quieter master to balance them out). The od1 to quiet and set od2 as loud for your lead sound. Ect.

    I just bought a Supro Delta King 12, put nos tubes and a G12H-30 Anniversary speaker and it’s incredible. It has a power amp input on back that takes the preamp out so that you can have a killler tube power amp for some of the amp in a box pedals as well. The Orange Rocker 32 is killer and a Stereo 210 so you can leave the other amp at home and have your stereo rig all in one. Then there is my favorite of any other under $1000 amps that I’ve had, and it the Vox TB ( Tony Bruno) 18 combo. It’s what Vox wanted to compete against the Fender Deluxe. It’s a 6V6 instead of standard Vox El 84 tube amp, and it’s so much nicer imo. I put NOS GE6v6 nos 12 ax7 and a Celestion Ruby 15watt speaker. I’ve played, worked at two high end shops selling Two Rocks, D13, Germino and the list goes on and I’d put that amp up against and of the big boys. It’s light as well. You can find them from $450 and up. They made a 35 watter with 4 6v6s and a “Macho Boost” footswitchable. 👈🏾is that a word? We sold Bruno’s in the store and that man can make an amp… shout out to the Peavey Classics, I had a tweed 410 50 watter that sounded killer. My band opened up for Duncan Shiek and he made a point to come over to me and tell me how great my tone was before he went on. El 84s ROCK!

    It's not tube, but the Roland Blues Cube is really great. The Hot version, you can find it under $500 and if you want a really good amp is not less in any way than a tube amp, and you need to play at lower volumes, is just so good. I love mine so much and I had a Blues Jr and a Laney cub 10. I prefer the Blues cube no doubt.
    At higher volumes yeah, the 3 work great, but at normal volumes the blues cube keeps sounding amazing.
    And under 1k the bigger blues cube are in that price.
    I do like that these are lighter and more reliable as well an never have to worry about tubes.
    Dont get me wrong, a nice tube amp sounds amazing, but idealy you need to crank it up and is just too loud to be practical, so never would be able to use it that way.

    Ampeg V4 and VT-22 as great alternatives to the Twin...flatter and tighter bass response with less mid scoop and I have been playing them all my life. The Riviera R series is a beautiful clean amp, and the R30 is a great Fender+; as well as the Riviera Suprema. Musicman HD series are another Twin killer. A rare one is the Yamaha VR6000 (and 4000), which I think simply sound better than the JC-120 as it is warmer (their G series is also a good solid state amp). The Sovtek Mig 50 is a monster Marshall copy. Mesa Blue Angel, Maverick, and Stiletto are all great amps that can get you Mesa tones at a reasonable price, with slightly less complicated boards and there are others that I haven't tried like the Express line that are supposed to be good. That is what comes off of the top of my head. But unless you are looking for a rest of your life amp, 1k should get you pretty far.

It sounds just as good as any fender or Marshall but with more meat to the tone. Depends on your playing style though... some amps sound better for let's say rhythm guitar, some for lead, some for jazz, some for metal, etc.

The overdrive channel is very dark sounding and not much good but the clean channel is as good a pedal platform as you're gonna get. But you have to get an old one from the 90's when they still mounted the tubes, input jacks and pots to the chassis instead of the PC board like they do now.

    It's the opposite situation here in Europe. Where Fenders are kind of expensive. Here, second-hand under 1k, I like the Marshall Studio heads. The JTM, Plexi, JCM are all good. Then the older British-built Orange Rocker 30 is a fantastic amp, cheaper than the Rockerverb, lighter and not quite as crazy loud / gainy a bit more vintage / less modern more like Marcus Kings' MK Ultra. And for Fender Deluxe / Super: Victory V40 can be picked up second-hand for around 1k. The Electro-harmonix reissue of the Sovtek Mig 50 is good. Also the Vox AC30S1 is a great amp to build on. One speaker, so only a little heavier, and costs around the same as the AC15C1, and just upgrade the speaker to a Celestion Alnico Gold later. Add a Torpedo Captor 16 if it's too loud. Has a FX loop, which the AC15C1 doesn't. So can add Surfybear for a real reverb and a Boss Trem pedal. I'm with you on the older Orange's, though I love my JTM and the Rocker 30 and JTM have some common ground - the JTM is more vintage sounding, the Orange has more gain and more headroom, and stronger bass. Some nice alternatives are Roland JC120, JC40, JC20. Heard some live recently and they do kick ass.

There is absolutely nothing like the sound of a cranked Vox and they work incredibly well with Teles AND humbuckers.

    How about a Pignose? They sound great

      Pignose 40 with an Eminence Rajun' Cajun 10" speaker rated at 75 watts. Even with servicing and resistors replaced I'm only out about $300. Warm and great with pedals. EQ knobs are worthless and the gain is noisy so I keep the gain down, the volume up and run a multi effects pedal into it. Very deep sound too with the Rajun' Cajun. In 2006, the Rajun' Cajun was only $45.

    No mention of Musicman? The early MMs, with 12ax7 PI are great durable cheap amps. That can get LOUD....Specifically, the MM 210-65, Half the size of a Twin, pair of 10s, 65 watts, 6CA7 or EL34 power section, Reverb, a unique sounding Trem, and Eminence Alnico speakers. Also, It has a half power switch, cuts the output to 30 watts...

    Supro Delta King amps are terrific, light, and cool-looking. $700 new.
