Hey!
I think you should take a look at the fender blues junior amp! It's a good practice amp and loud enough for small club gigs. /Gabriel

Go for Line 6 Flextone III, amazing sound! Sometimes I forget that I"m playing on a Digital amp and not on a tube amp. Great blues tones!

I'm partial to the Blues DeVille. I have a 1993 tweed 2 X 12, and love it.

I prefer a re-issue Marshall 1987X / 1960 AVT speaker box. The 25-watt Celestion Greenbacks give a warm tone and ample punch to compliment my Strat. The amp is very versatile and reliable. You can get tones like Buddy Guy, SRV, Magic Sam..purely tube sounding.

Well, if you want high gain, then Marshall is cool.

I don't care what anyone says. If you got money, buy a Marshall. They are the best.

I have a 65 Deluxe reverb reissue and a Blues Jr. for my 3 american strats.
the Deluxe sonds so weet and clean. The Blues Jr has a nasty growl to it.
I love my DRRI..22 watts of pure heaven
