I've currently got a Gibson SG special, through a PodXT, into a Roland Keyboard solid state amp.
For whatever reason, I've got a bug in me to buy a guitar amp, and not exactly sure which one.
I'm not really interested in any of the modeling amps, or amps with digital effects built in, since I've got a PodXT now (and likely will always have some sort of effects box). My inner guitar snob says "buy tube!", so I'm good with that. I've been recommended a Fender Blues Jr., but I'm not really happy that it doesn't have effects send/return (though I suppose I could do guitar->PodXT->BluesJr) or a line/headphone out. I am happy about the cost (~$400), compared to other Fenders that have such features ($700+).
I also like the output level, since I'm using this for home studio sort of stuff, and not gigging. I don't want to have to live between 0 and 1 to be able to use it in a small room without earplugs.
Another option seems to be B-52, and their 112 model. Its 60 watts, which might be 'too loud', but it has all the other options I was thinking about.
Anyways, please recommend!
