hye great people of LYN,
im opening a rehearsal/jam studio soon...
i just need help on choosing guitars amps...
im a drummer so i dont know much about guitar stuff...
i have a list of amps that i already view and test with my friends...
and the price is somewhere there~

fender deluxe 112 plus (used) : RM1800
marshall mg100dfx (new) : RM1850
ashton ga100 212 : RM1600
peavey studio pro 112 : not sure
vox valvetronix ad100vt : RM1600

help me by voting ur fav...and please include ur reason if u have time....

and one more thing, what do you guys think about Wharfedale P.A system?

thanks in advance...

p/s : if possible, make it fast people, because im planning to book the fender (2 units) today~

vox hands down

I have voted Vox as well.

Vox. Lots of presets, and great volume too.

Vox, hands down.

peavey, it takes pedals well, and it's a very durable(?) / reliable amp. dun really like modelling amp for jamming. hehehe.

Players point of view:
VOX or Peavey

Business point of view:
Marshall MG
VERY Durable . resale value higher . make your studio looks really good ( with yellow lights ) , wont get "outdated" so fast like peavey amps

yea, for studio use i would go for the marshall mg.
also takes abuse pretty well

thanks people,

but i heard that marshall will not sound good when its getting heat up due to long jam session....

and the vox is hard to take care of the electronics, like line 6 amps?

whats ur opinion?

ive tested the ashton, sounds good, anyone using this amp? gimme some review...

and how about the fender? no one voting for fender amps?

The Vox would be the best choice. But if you get a Peavey 5150, i'll jam at your studio every weekend! Haha.

my guitar teacher has both marshall avt and peavey bandit. there is once both amp had to be switch on very long time ( not sure the time) due to continuous jamming from lotsa ppl, the avt is burned, and the peavey survived.

Aiya, get all 3 vox, peavey and marshall then you get more customers.


Kau tim lah.


Can use one for lead, 2 for rhythm guitars when jamming.

vox ftw... and i second the peavey... when i was a student my hsemate own the peavey... the drive channel is superb... we even brought it to studio to jam..

anyway..

why wouldn't you buy Laney Hardcore Max ..or LX wtv the newer series is ..

Thats a pretty solid amp that takes pedals well and its cheaper than marshall and vox..

If you wanna go for tone ...aiya..get Cube60 only la..so many people familiar with microcube

hmm...anyone know the price of that peavey studio pro 112???

i like the idea of 2 different amps...
so far i can see most ppl prefer vox and marshall.....
1 thing i want to know, that vox amp is using tube???

my friends also mostly prefer marshall,
but some of the pros dont recommend marshall as it will blow when its getting hot~
some others asking me to get the peavey...
and mostly ask me to avoid laney....
this is based on reviews and guitarist friends..

hmmm...i was supposed to book the fender today, haha...
looks like i will have to change my mind....
fender really that sucks ah?

What amp is best for modern metal sounds ? Mesa Boogie?

I think his whole studio costs less then a Mesa Boogie Half Stack.........

The Peavey would be a good idea. Since this will be used for a studio, durability and maintenance should be factored in. Solid states sounds like a good idea, one that is very pedal friendly.

The Vox has great tone, but if say the tube wears off, its quite a pain to replace. Access to the poweramp section is like going through a maze.
But, I believe the Vox would have the best tone out of those few?

Objective post ends here, +1 on the Vox. Not sure how much abuse it can take though, so if durability is the top priority I think solid states is where you wanna be looking.

don't get Laney ? WTF ...Laney is like THE PEDAL amp for me man...

anyway...why not try Behringer...my Studio uses all Behringer ..bass amps , guitar amps ..
Quite Ok wurt...

Where is your studio gonna be
