HELP! - New Amp

Post by Jeremy Kill »

So I've had my amp, a Fender Frontman 25R, since I started playing guitar. It's a decent amp, I enjoy it and I love the sound of my guitar right now. But I can't help but feel I need to upgrade a little bit.

I was thinking of getting a "Marshall Haze MHZ40C 40W 1x12 Tube Guitar Combo Amp". I heard Marshall makes good tube amps and I want a combo because I don't think I'll be on stage any time soon or even frequently enough to put a whole stack to use. JVM's are out of my price range and apparently MG's are shit. So out of all the Marshall's, this one is the best choice for me.

Can anyone give me some consultation as to whether or not I should get this amp or find something else?

Get an used Marshall JCM800 or 900. They blow the shit out of most nowadays Marshalls.
For you it would be best to get the JCM900. (Tom Delonge used that one by the way.)

Well, i mean, don't let ME influence your decision. But if you want my opinion, there is NO point at all to buy this if your not gonna be on stage. You can blow your head off for a MUCH smaller price tag.

Btw, i have a fender frontman amp as well, they're pretty solid.

OMG you guys... help! I can't find those "BIZZY" brand amps in any stores!!1! :suicide:

I'll consider the JCM900. I won't have money issues once I graduate, so I'll probably be able to afford it.
