In recent posts I've talked about upgrading my FENDER Pro Tube Pro Reverb amps with different speakers, tubes, etc. Now [and once again - (please don't shoot me)] I'm not sure I want to keep either one of them. Weight is a big factor (±74 lb.), and I'm not totally sold on the tone out of the "drive channel" (channel #2). I also don't need a 50 watt amp. I don't play out anymore, but that might change. I'm starting to look at other options. I want to keep the financial expenditure somewhere between $900.00 - $1,400, 18 - 22 watts RMS, and the weight down to a reasonable level > 50 lbs.

Here is my list of options:

1. Mesa/Boogie Trans Atlantic 15
2. Mesa Boogie 5:25 112
3. FENDER Super Sonic 22
4. FENDER Deluxe Reverb RI - using an O.D pedal

My BUDDA SD II - 18 has become my "go to" amp, but I'm looking for something a little different to compliment that amp.

Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

I have always found The clean Mesa to be a colder sounding fender. But the coldness sounds really good for distorted tones.But i prefer natural tube distortion and i like to use pedals cause of the flexibility. I prefer the deluxe reverb
