for band practice at gig ba yun sir? o sa pambahay lang? yung stagg na 60 watts mas ok pa yun kesa sa mg50 sir.. mas mura pa.. o kaya laney cub10 or cub12.. tube amp yun mas maganda lalo tumunog yun..

sa bahay ko lang gagamitin.. tapos konting recording.. try ko humanap ng mga suggested amps nyo.. magkano kya yung price range nung laney amp? or yung stagg?

ok din ba ung Orange amp? may nakita kasi ako yung orange cr12l.. di ko nga lang ma-test.. damot kasi nung nagtitingda..  :cry:

I've seen reliability issues sa Cub10 at Cub12. Kung icocompare mo siya sa MG50, hindi tatagal ang Laney Cub ng 5yrs ng walang regular maintenance at servicing. Naglolokong pilot lamp, adjust ng bias, tubes, etc.. A fellow friend of mine had a Cub and he said parang laruan ang itsura. No offense, pero for the price, something must be compensated sa amp na yun. Dami na rin naglalabasan na used na Cub12 considering na bago-bago lang siya sa market..

Ok yung Orange amp, lalo na yung mga USA na high end. Pero yung crush series nila, mas ok ang MG kesa dun.

With that budget go for the older Valvestate. If you can get the 1st generation Valvestate that was released early 90's mas maganda. I've seen some Valvestate's sa selling section di malayo sa budget mo.
I have stated that there are more bad sounding suhrs then there are good ones.

Malayo mararating ng 12k mo sa JBmusic Southmall ngayon.
Payo ko lang, pumunta ka na dun kung medyo malapit ka lang at hindi gaanong busy.
Nagkakaubusan na kasi.

I have to agree with this, panalo ang mga valvestate series ng Marshall. Aside from that, you can also try the Roland Cube, very nice sounding amp both on clean and distortion.

Also just to add, if use analog pedals so much, I suggest you stay away from modelling amps.

Hindi sila magrereplenish ng stocks sa branch na yun bro.
Inuubos na nila stocks nila kasi moving out sale sila kaya 40% off til aug 31.
Definitely sa new store location nila (within southmall din) back to normal na mga prices.

ah ganun ba.. magkano kaya yung normal price nya? yung laney cub12r or yung cub12..


BTW, meron ba ditong owner ng Goldea superblues AT-30? maganda ba yun? na-try ko sya kanina.. di ko lang masabi kung ok ba sya kasi medyo maingay sa mall.. meron siyang prescence knob..  tapos nasilip ko yung loob nya, parang maayos naman.. :-D
