Don't knock this....... but have you tried out the Marshall AVT150x??? I dunno.... could be your taste.... it was mine.....

If you dress well and carry your guitar in a respectable case...... Bentley would let you test the amps..... They let me....

And like led_zep said...... he tried it out with a strat (I think) and it sounded like crap...... but pushed through my Modded ZW Les Paul and my ZW-44 Over drive..... it sounded DAMN good..... classic JCM800 tone with even more bite thanks to my ZW-44.....

That's why I decided to go with a Valvestate Marshall instead of a full blown Tube amp....
Small Room..... Can't play too loud..... and if I get a half-stack Valvestate.... it will take up half the room already!

Will take pics of the complete room when I get the Marshall AVT150.....

If anyone knows where I can find a Peavey XXX Combo in Malaysia, do let me know..... And NOT second hand.

Who said 4x12 SS half stack?
It's the AVT150x combo lah.............

And yes...... I'm still sticking to the Marshall for now.......

Pix is just jealous because I can squeeze out better tones from my little AVT then his big ol' Tube Amp........
