OK, here's the deal. I have been living in an appartment for a while, 6 years with the wife actually, so last year i decided to sell my JCM 2000 head and cab. it had been sitting there accumulating dust anyway. that sucker needs to be played LOUD to sound good, at low volume, it sucks.
NOW' we just bought a house, and i want a new amp basicaly, but my musical style as changed somewhat. my first amp was a cheap marshall, those 30 watt transistor ones in the early 80's then BAM..2xJCM800 50watt heads with 4 cabs, MAN that was THE best set-up i ever had, then some JCM 900, crap, and the JCM 2000.
In those days, until recently, i only was intertested in playing Heavy Metal, Maiden, Metalica, priest, etc etc. but now, even if i still play that stuff, i like to play the blues a lot, and cleaner riffs.
SO' i want to buy an amp that can give me METALICA when i get the Kramer of the LP, but that will give me a GOOD clean blues sound when i pick-up the Strat.
SO, since i've not been in the market for a LONG time for an amp, what's new and what's good..
