    Christmas is coming up ;) So I'm going to look for some money to go towards a new amp, looking for something that I can stick with for a few years If I decide to go for a major buy at some point down the road. I've heard good things about Engl, anyone got any recommendations ?

    Cheers.

    Depends on the style you play, what your budget is, and are you looking for a combo, or a head & cab setup.

    I'd recommend a Laney LC30. Class A all valve 30watt amp. Check out the Laney.co.uk site for more details then go to Adverts.ie we can do a deal. :)

    Its a very versatile amp that will do almost everything(bar the really heavy metal) Its well loud enough and a very good price for what you get.

    They're certainly good amps for the money, but I'd definetly budget for a tubescreamer aswell if you want a serious metal vibe. ;)

    Although, if you can stretch to €759 then you can nab yourself an ENGL Thunder 50.
