Hi guys, I've had to sell many of my amps and finally have a chance to buy one back! I'm looking for a 1x12 Fender/BF Style combo. I am not looking for a cheap alternative, I'm happy to spend a bit of money and get something that I can keep for a while as I want to eventually gig it (when things get back to normal). Here is some info:
I've owned a Maz 38 and a Bassbreaker 45. Loved the Maz, but I've got an AC style amp already and want to get something different. Loved the Bassbreaker, but too big and too much on the Marshall side.
Amps I'm considering - Victory V40 Deluxe combo. Looks great and sounds good in the demos, but have repeatedly seen that its not quite BF-ey. Can't really try.
Tone King Imperial - I've played it once and absolutely loved it. Might be a bit too expensive new.
Mark V:25 - Owned one briefly and was impressed with the head, but this was when I didn't know much about amps and sold it stupidly. I find Mesas hard to dial as I'm more of a set and forget guy.
Open to any other BF style suggestions as I am not very familiar with alternatives and even with Fender-made options that are better than the stock 65 RI. Good base tone is more important to me than pedal friendliness. Will most likely be driving it with a Centura or a The Dane pedal for different covers from Arctic Monkey, Black Keys to Beatles
.
Thanks!
