    I've been playing through a Marshall 15watt (MG15RCD) for about 4 years now, just using it for home and jammin with the band. It is loud enough to be heard over the drums!
    Anyway, I'm lookin to upgrade.
    I have a budget of about €250.

    Think im gonna go with the Line6 Spider II 30.

    So does anyone have any advice for me before I buy?

    Will be using a Fender Tele Mex and an Epiphone SG310.

    I was playing through one of those line6 deals the other night at a gig and found it fairly sweet. Wouldnt be interested in the onboard effects myself, but the tone was nice. If you could afford it, a vox amp would match your tele nicely. But they might be over your budget.

    The Spider would be my recommendation on that budget. Go for it. Get yourself some strings/leads and general sundries while you're at it - it all comes under the same 23 euro shipping.

    Thanks lads.

    Eoin: Gonna get the amp and Tele through that http://www.musictechnology.ie crowd in dublin, they're matching the thomann price(including the €23) anyway.
