Help Me Find an amp...

Here's what I need:

Something under $1300
A 1x12 speaker
Good cleans
Pedal Friendly

Right now, I'm thinking either a Fender Deluxe Reverb or a Dr. Z Carmon Ghia. But there might be something else out there that could work.

I've love some input.

You may want to add what kind of music you play ... guitar plugging into it ... and/or specific tones you want ... or this will turn into another "name your favorite amp" thread.

Sure. sorry.

I'm playing stuff similar to Modest Mouse, Death Cab etc... as well as some alt-country early Wilcoish stuff. Nothing to heavy, but I need cleans and some grit.

My set up is Baja Tele>Brown Rabbit>Tim>Digilog>Dunlop Trem>Pitchblack Pretty simple setup right now.

Thanks for any help!

can you go used? if you need more headroom, the dr.z ezg is an amazing amp (blackface cleans in a head plus some lead sounds) as well as the dr. z maz 38. I also like super reverbs for more headroom. if not, go for the dr.z if you want fuller tone, if you want more versitality, get the drri

edit- what type of pedal is the brown rabbit??

I would think for what you want you could get by with spending
half that much
