Here are my criteria:
50w and upwards. Could possibly entertain a 40-45w.
Combo.
Preferably 1x12, although a small head and 1x12 cab is also possible.
Vintagey sounding. Good for classic rock basically. I like Marshall based tones. Plexi type things are always good.
Needs to either have an fx loop or a pair of master volumes so I can get volume boosts for solos.
I'd like it to be a bit special/unique
Budget, for the right amp, isn't really too much of a concern.
I've been looking at Two Rock, Carr, Tone King etc.
I'd prefer the gain mostly to come from the amp although I do have a good selection of boosts and drives to get it over edge for fluid soloing etc.
Maybe a Friedman small box 50?
Dirty Shirley?
Soldano 44? (Albeit no loop
)
Any Dr Z's worth considering?
I don't want a Marshall.

And Bad Cat unleash to make up the volume difference? So I'll have an extra volume hike because of the amplification features of the Unleash??

Or you could buy my Mesa Nomad 45. It's a 4x10 though.
