Hi Guys,
I’ve just moved to Vancouver, BC & could only bring my strat and a handful of pedals. I’m looking to join a band so I need an amp (and a good one at that!) but of course I don’t want to empty out my wallet, so I was thinking around the $600 mark on craigslist, so if I get a used amp, I can get something pretty good for that price.
Back home I had a Fender blues deluxe reissue but I always found that it seemed very dry & left a lot of “responsibility” on my pedals? So for solo’s, there weren’t enough sustain for my liking and the guitar didn’t sing as much as I’d of liked. So I’m looking for something that is an all rounder for my pedals and has a nice clean tone but gives me the sustain I need for guitar solos.
I play blues/pop-rock kind of stuff.
Players / tones I like are Mike Campbells from Tom Petty & the heart breakers, also gary moore’s too.
Any suggestions on what I should be looking out for?
Thanks alot
