Looking for little amp for Green day sound

Ivor

Hello 
Iam 15 years old and i love playing the guitare and love  green day , so playing green day songs is the best of both worlds.  i have got a harley benton les pauls but want to make a telecaster style partscaster with angled humbucker like he uses at the reading festival in 2013 and a squire sp10 amp and i am trying to get a green day tone from it but apparently these aren't very good amps and doesn't sound good on distortion so i want a cheap but good amp to practise with that gets close to billie joe armstrong tone .
I have looked at little practise amps and ones i am looking at are the boss katana mini, the blackstar fly 3 ,fender mustang tl 25,. or big ones the boss katana 50 . what does anyone thinks ? has anybody got any suggestions? what does anyone recommend ? 
Would a marshall ms4 work ?

Thanks 
Toby

Hello Ivor, welcome to our guitar club!

I don't know much about the type of amp you are looking for (I always go for bigger amps), but you might like to look at Positive Grid - https://www.positivegrid.com/

I haven't tried one myself, though.

Out of the amps you mentioned, if a katana 50 is in your budget I would bet that you'd have a great time with it

Hey Toby, welcome to the forum! Can’t go wrong with a Katana 50 if it’s in your budget. 

The Spark 40 is also great and has lots of extras to help with practicing.

Welcome to the forum.

I love the fact that when I was a 15 year old kid like you I was also seeking to find a good Green Day tone. And now 28 years later there's still kids like you out there starting on that same journey. 

(Does make me feel really f***ing old though!)

Blackstar debut 50r will do that for you and won't break the bank. I love mine, great little, no frills practice amp with a surpringly huge tone, I'd take that over katana any day. I owned the artist mk2 and 50r with its two channels and easy controls is a no brainer for this kind of tone.
