The GAS has kicked in for a valve combo.
I'm looking for something relatively compact so i'm thinking a 112.
A footswitchable solo boost is high on the priorities list, as is at least 2x channels covering a good clean through to at least plexi territory.
I'm loving my mesa TC-50 head at the moment, so i've been looking at the recto-verb combos. Can anyone chime in on what they're fetching on the used market?
Also grabbing my attention are the Friedman runt 20s, but they feel like overkill for what i'm going to use it for. So does anyone have any hidden gems they could recommend?
The Mesa and Friedman strike me as a 600-800 budget, so if anyone can point me towards a good alternative in the 300-500 area then we're talking pulling triggers.
I've seen the hughes and kettner stuff, which is good...but it didn't win me over enough to pry my eyes off the Mesa and Friedman options.
Watcha think guys, help me spend some cash?

The JCA combos just don't quite cut it in the cleans for me. Bit too much grit in there to be a proper clean tone rather than a crunch
best bang for buck valve amp in that price bracket.
