Ok, I have a 200 watt keyboard amp and a Digitech RP100 that has lots of amp models and effects. I can hook an ipod or run backing tracks off my computer through the rp100. So when I look for a new amp. I don't think I need a modeling amp. Just a nice fender. Can anyone recommend a good solid amp. Don't need a ton of wattage.Just a good sounding amp.Thanks

Your question is too broad, "General".

What types of "deployments" do you envision for the new amp?

What type of sonic "strategy" favors your music?

Should the new amp be "man-portable" or "crew-served"?

Any "tactical considerations" as to size, weight, and/or output?

looking for a portable amp, 30-75 watts. I mean since a have a prossesor already, I don't see a need for a modeling amp. I am not a very good player. I like to play blues, classic rock....ect. It dosen't have to be a tube amp, but I am open to one. From what I have heard on this board and others, small wattage tube amps can be real screamers. I have a 200 watt keyboard amp that is crazy loud, but i Know it's not a guitar amp.

You could do a lot worse than a......(drum roll please) Deluxe Reverb Re-issue.
