    Right i will be starting to gig soon and have made my way through some amplifires but can seem to find one that will be good enough for gigging, i will be playing Classic Rock and Grunge, I have a Marshall 100mgfx Amp and the Half Stack but i dont think it will be good enough for the stage!

    Any suggestions

    PMy Price range €500 €700 also valve amp would be my preferred choice

    In that money bracket, I would go with this guy.... you not gonna get much better in that bracket and all the marshall stuff stopped after the JCM900 :)

    Maybe look up some older rivera amps too if you serious and not just a bedroom boy :)

    There are better Marshalls than the 'wasp in a jar' JCM900.
    Marshall JVM is a great all rounder.

    I know, my point was it all went down hill then, even the 900 cabs were cheaper made... hence why I ran 800's :) must check out that amp you mentioned myself...
