So I'm currently looking for a small practice amp for my dorm room that doesn't sound too bad. I've been using Positive Grid Bias but lately its just seemed too digital and idk, just not what I really want. I'd like to go a more natural and maybe analog route and maybe get a small tube amp? I just bought myself a Boss RC-1 looper pedal as well as an MXR Custom Badass Modified OD and I have a Digitech RP500 (using it for now, but like I said, I'd like to go less digital). I should add what I wanna play; I mostly play prog metal (think BTBAM, Periphery, STS), but have been playing a lot of really different stuff lately, slightly more jazz, also indie rock, so I would want something that's pretty versatile.
That said, I have looked for several used offerings online and was hoping people could weigh in:
I found a used Fender Mustang I v2 on craigslist that the dude said I could have for $50. That seems absurdly cheap even if it's not that expensive and it's in good condition.
However, I think I'd like to get a tube amp; I'm hoping to stay in the <$200 range but I understand that I should push that up a little if I want a solid amp.
I like what I've seen from the Orange micro terror head (even if only tube preamp) paired with their small 8" cab.
I've also looked at Vox AC4TV or AC4C1, the Bugera V5 Infinium, Laney Cub 8, Blackstar HT-1 but would be open to other options!
I am also curious as to what pedals and effects people think would be good additions. Ideally, I'd still like to get an analog delay, maybe a clean boost, idk! The options are endless!
Thanks for any help
