My Crate GFX 212 (which was a little over 100 watts) which was fairly loud solid state amp bugged out on me and I'm looking to buy a new amp. Decided to try tube amps but don't want to spend a ton. I'm deciding on a Fender Hot Rod Deville 212, a Fender Hot Rod Deville 410, and Fender Hot Rod Deluxe 40 watt. Alright, anybody in the know have any advice on what would be a good amp to buy. I've read every amp is pretty loud an I'm wondering are they that much louder than the Crate GFX 212?
Also what would be a good choice. I like the clean sounds from Fender amps that I've heard and the whole tube thing interests me.
Any suggestions? I understand these amps supposedly have so-so distortion but I figure I'll get another effects board/ amp modeler to deal with that so I'm not worried but in terms of a good sounding amp, I'm just curious if people have any opinions.
