Guitar Practice Amp Suggestions

[ZOOYUKA]

I am looking for a 10-15 watt practice amp. Preferably under a hundred bucks. I will be using it with a Fender Telecaster. I want something that sounds good both clean and distorted. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Wally world has one for $60

How about a Pignose?

Have you had any experience with this one? It seems like a good deal at 79.99. Plus music123 has a 10% percent off coupon for all Fender items right now.

Pignose = $$$. A cheap fender will suffice. I personally had a Crate which I liked.

vox ad15vt or boss microcube. Both a little more than $100 but maybe you can get them used off of ebay. The Boss is nice because you can use it on batteries. Both have a decent selection of effects built in....

i was just thinking of the 15G... i've played on my friends, it has a very nice and warm tone, but the distortion is very nice on it too. you'll like it.

This is by far one of the most recommended practice amps for under $100 that money can buy. Seriously consider the Roland over the Fender 15G

I have both a Pignose and a Fender (don't remember the models). I prefer the Pignose, but both do the job just fine.

as far as my personal experience, i haven't played a fender amp in a long time. i mostly play metal and i'm more of a mesa/boogie recto man myself. i chose that one because fender makes good amps and i know a few people that have had that amp and really like it.

This one looks pretty good too. It seems like there is a lot of bang for the buck. Especially will the distortion effects. I will have to seriously consider this one.

The distortion effects definately seperate itself from the Fender 15G. I believe that amp is what came with my nephew's Squire players pack. I mean.. don't get me wrong.. I'm sure the Fender 15G makes a good practice amp.. but the Roland Cube 15 packs so much into that little thing, it makes you wonder why it doesn't cost more than $100.

I made the mistake of purchasing one of those players packs (i'm learning on the cheap).. and bought an Epiphone SG Special. Well..as soon as I read and researched on the Roland, I purchased one. My little $hitty Epiphone amp is currently collecting dust in the back of the closet.

Thanks, this is the one I am going to go with.

Try a Vox Pathfinder also. If you want to hear something really amazing, get them to hook it to a good 4 x 12 cabinet.

Awesome choice, but I recently discovered the Fender G-DEC.

G-DEC Info

There is nothing on the market like it! It's a full band in a portable box. Love mine to death, and it never fails to impress 🙂

Wow that thing is amazing. Unfortunately at $270 it is out of my price range.

The Roland series would be your best bet then. I carry my Microcube everywhere 🙂
