Looking at affordable tube combos

[tonemonster]

Laney AOR series. Nuf said.

what he said.

these are hidden gems forgotten over time. if you can find one, snag it.

a mesa F30 is a great option too.

if not, I have no idea what your budget is, but if you can stretch it, get a used Bogner Shiva and search no more. IMO it is the ULTIMATE combo amp. there is nothing you cannot do with a Shiva. you can cross oceans, level mountains, remote panties, defeat armies, peel paint, sooth savage beasts. its the swiss army knife of amps.

you're not the original poster so how do you know what is affordable to him?

OP didn't specify
so either we give random suggestions or nobody should (have) respond(ed) untill OP put up a value?

I liked the clean tone...did not like that lead tone

Well, there are lots of voicing options for the lead channel. That's just one of many possible lead channel tones. At it's heart though the lead channel is very Marshall plexi flavoured. Anyways I don't want to seem like a zealot for the amp. I just think it's a good bargain for a tube amp.

What about a Blackstar HT 60?

All the amps mentioned are fine amps. Many of them are affordable. For the amount of tones and versatility that the OP is looking for none of those amps are going to cut it and I would know.. I owned every one of them.
The OP is going to need to spend around $2000.00 min if he is going to get near all his required tones. If $2000.00 is affordable then he should have no problem.

If he is looking for all those tones on the relative cheap... get a modeling amp.
I do think the Randall RM series is a really good suggestion that I didn't even think about .... and I play a RM100 live!

I don't wanna remote panties. I like using my hands.
