Looking for a not so loud amp.

I'll be looking this Monday, but thought I would ask you chaps for some suggestions..

I just bought one of these off of ebay.(Don't have it yet).

The manufacturer is running the (dutch) auction, and they're really responsive. They'll send you links to sound samples if you ask.

whoa..that thing's crazy looking!

Thanks for sharing that one, Sleek.

Well, I like the fact that somebody's making something like that for less than half the price of the Zvex nanoamp, (and with more controls!), so I want them to be successful...

...mind you, once I get it, if I like it, I'll really start pimping for them!

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, man?

It's a amp. I'm planning on plugging into it and sticking a mic in front of a speaker and recording it.

I was asking about what cabinet you're gonne use with it, sorry, should have made that clearer. Unless it comes with a cabinet I didn't see..

Oh. I see.

I have an 8" and a 10" speaker mounted in these little cabinets I made by cutting an amp-in-case thing into two sections.

I'm making a little isolation cabinet for them. Kind of a foot locker with 4" thick foam around all the sides and a microphone at one end. It should be schweet.

...as it is now, I make an iso chamber by stacking my couch cushions around the little amp I have...I think the new box will be better

Dr Z Maz Jr., Matchless Lightning or a Fuch's Overdrive Supreme 30 combo.

Those would be my first choices.

*Prfffft* Those are nice for Mr. Howell, but I'd rather have a car.

Nothing good has ever been recorded on expensive amps

fender champ 12 (used tube, not the digital fx champs..) ~$200 used. does 'guitar' for me.

fender champ 12

Those are pretty good. They were on my short list before I found that little deal I posted.

...as are their big brothers, the Evil Twins, which are big amps, but have a switch so you can knock 'em down to half power.

Roland Cube 15 or 30. The 30 is bigger and louder, which you may not need, but has built-in effects, which might be of some value. I've got a 15 and am quite happy with it, although I'm in the market for a J-Station now.

Good (little) guitar amp
