      <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You wouldn't really want one for metal - it would lack headroom and get a more compressed 'classic rock' tone. This is why most of the metal amps are higher wattage - to stay tight and focused. About the lowest wattage you'd want is around 5-15, and even then if you cranked the amp all the way it would mush out a bit. However, a 5 watt amp can still be loud with a good 4x12 speaker cab.

      Now if you were looking for 80s metal or 60s-70s rock, I could fix you right up [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
