69tele Rockin Gibraltar Thou Shalt Gas !	Apr 27th, 2012 02:34 AM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic Thinking of getting a second amp exclusively to use with my Les Paul / SG I play in 2 bands one, is a wedding/corp band where I play a tele/LP through a Line 6 Flextone III (POD XT amp) and the other is a more casual affair where we play blues, rock and new country. We played this weekend with the second band using a blues junior for the tele and the Flextone for the LP and the tone on the Valve Blues Junior just blew the Flextone away. So as my singer also plays guitar, and we need 2 amps anyway thinking of getting a second valve amp and dedicating thank to the LP with its own pedalboard. thinking along the lines of 15-20 watts. Maybe the egnater tweaker or bogner alchemist ? Opinions ?

Uncle Pat Central KY Seasonal musician	Apr 27th, 2012 07:07 AM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic Dr Z has several in that wattage range...Carmen Ghia, Maz Jr, Monza, Z-28. Depends on what flips your switch the best...12AX7's or EF86's for preamp, EL84's or 6V6's for power. They're all great and unique.

K4 Contributing Member ********** ****** Kentucky	Apr 27th, 2012 06:36 PM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic I have a class 5 head, plenty loud for micing. I used it last week when I sat in with an old band I used to be a member of, before I left for Louisianna. It had enough volume to hear on stage and, well miced is miced. Might kick the tires on one.
urby Contributing Member ******** *un-like*	Apr 27th, 2012 10:39 PM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic I've been playing my LP through my Carr Rambler and my modified CVR lately. Sounds sweet. LP's always sound good through a Twin Reverb, too.
69tele Rockin Gibraltar Thou Shalt Gas !	Apr 28th, 2012 04:10 AM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic dont really want anything made by behringer with valves although i dont mind there mixers etc. seem like I need to go and test the class 5 as well as the egnater rebel 20 and tweaker vibrolux and twin will be be way too loud at 40 and 65 watts (and heavy) princeton looks like the ticket but might be out of budget thanks for the comments
professor Contributing Member ********** **** North Gnarlyington	Apr 28th, 2012 07:31 AM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic If you're looking at the Marshall Class 5 you should also consider the Pro Junior. I have both and I find them to overlap a lot in their characteristics. New, the prices are close, but the ProJr is more compact and, at 15 W, is distinctly louder. I just set up both side by side with an a/b box, using my LP, no pedals in the way. Both deliver a nice crunchy overdrive when dimed, but there is a clarity that the ProJr has, partly due to volume, and in spite of the speaker and cabinet size difference. If I had to pick one it would be the ProJr. (This message was last edited by professor at 10:26 AM, Apr 28th, 2012)

professor Contributing Member ********** **** North Gnarlyington	Apr 29th, 2012 09:37 AM   Edit   Profile   Print Topic   Search Topic "how would the pro junior differ to the blues junior" Blues Jr- more expensive, bigger speaker, reverb, master volume...there are ongoing Pro Junior and Blues Junior threads going on in the post 1985 Fender amps forum.
