Worth a buy?

I'll saw what everyone else will probably say

How much are you going to spend on it?

For under £500 you could get a second hand JCM800 which is the real deal marshall head

Or you could buy mine (Avt150H) of me, mint condition, hardly ever used..Sounds ace, but ive stopped playin guitar in my band so have no use for it.

If ure interested send us an email: stephanio69@aol.com

seriously man, go for all-valve. In my opinion you will never get a 'really' satisfactory sound from a solid state (okay..."valve state") amplifier. Mohawk is right, 800's are awesome, especially the 2204 model 50watt. I'm assuming you are going for high-gain and volume as you are the only guitarist in your band, for the money you want to spend, i'd say go for marshall. I use 100w tube amps and they would both piss on anything up to 300watts solid state for tone, gain and percieved volume.

Do the right thing man. Buy a tube amp. You won't be disappointed.
