britheguy Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Hi.Just looking for ideas on a decent small(ish) amp. I'm looking to down size in the area of overall weight of the amp etc. So looking for ideas on a 1x12 or 1x10 combo or head and small ca. any ideas?

Adam Easy Wishes Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 For what purpose? Gigging? Practicing? Small space or large space? To cut through in a practice room? Information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSJ81 Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 I have a vox ac4 tv head and 1x10 cab. Use it on the 1/4 watt setting in the hoose and have used it in a rehearsal room on the 4 watt setting and it has held its own (through a 4x12 as opposed to the 1x10) Also has the 1 watt setting too. I like my clean sound just starting to break up so it works well for me. If I'm being honest though I'd say its just a little on the quiet side if your gonna be playing with a big hitting drummer etc. I do like the fact I can push it a the lower settings to get the warm crunchy sound without disturbing the wife, the 1 year old or the neighbours! I've read that folk have swapped out the valves to get a bit more clean headroom if required... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Broonbreed Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 You can't go wrong with a tiny terror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britheguy Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Ah good point. It's for home and gigging. Middle of the rock rock type stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britheguy Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 trying out my old H&K tubmister (eh!) 36 just now. Sounds ok, but it's through a 2x12 cab which is a bit of a pain to carry about etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettthain1 Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 The Vox AC4 sounds incredible! Would a fender blues jr be gig worthy? I never really look at fender stuff but it's had me interested!Still contemplating between a Vox AC30 or a Marshall Bluesbreaker... Two very different amps, both sound amazing!

jon Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I got shot of my JCM900 and ENGL heads as well as two cabs in favour of a Tiny Terror combo with a 1x12 extension cab. I'm not sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Broonbreed Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I've never actually thrashed a Tiny Terror through a 4x12.... I've barely had my one past 1 on 7W mode.... I can only imagine it's fucking magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
