Hi,
I posted a while ago asking if a Budda Superdrive II would be the answer to my amp needs. The good thing it appears it could be, but after doing a little more research there are so many other options available
.
Here is my amp wish list:
* Something that will be suitable for studio/small gig use;
* Clean, cleans and with good head room, but not over bright with single coils;
* Will take effects well including reverb in front of the amp, if no loop and if no reverb on the amp;
* Will get me to some 80's rock sounds with or without pedals.
I play mainly dirty/grunge style blues along with 80's type rock, so here is my list of amps to try and get to play before I buy:

- * Budda Superdrive II 30watt head;
* Blackstar Artisan 15watt head (although a fellow member suggests this is a bright when used clean with a tele - so may not be for me);
* HiWatt Studio/Stage head;
* Cornford 35 Hell Cat;
* Matamp 1224 mk2
