Yeah, that's a great amp. Loud as hell for a little amp, breaks up early enough that it's good for bedroom volume.

I'll put a plug in for the Vox AD30VT. It's loud when necessary, has great modeling sounds, has partial tube sound, and best of all, it has a headphone jack for those times when you need to be quiet.

fender tube amps are really really nice. BUt i have heard bad things about their solid state amps. How much are you willing to spend? If anything then go for a blues junior or AC15 :)

Lots of different sounds. Fun. About $300.

seems like your a metal dude.
look for a marshall lead12, or even the kerry king 15watt. Besides that a fender Gdec will give you good sounds.

Roland Cube 30x. Great sound quality, lots of cool features, sounds great at low volumes for playing at home, MP3/CD input, headphone/recorder output. I love mine. It was a vast improvement over my old beginner amp.

If you want backing tracks to practice and learn with, check out the G-DEC series.

If you want great tone, I'd suggest a Pro Jr with Billm mods.

I have a Fender SuperChamp XD 15w Tube/Solid channels. Excellent sounding amp stock even better with some upgraded speakers. It does not have a headphone out.
