Currently I have a Mesa Mark IV and I am looking for a second amp to compliment it. Looking for something in the 50 watt range with a good/decent clean and a dirty channel that can go up into hard rock/metal levels of gain. I would prefer an effects loop. I don't mind if the dirty channel needs to be boosted to get into modern metal territory as long as it can do the hard rock stuff without one.
So far the amps I amp looking at are:
Mesa Single Rect (which I owned one and not sure if I gave it a fair shake)
VHT 50CL (never have even seen one in person but I like that people say they are pretty tight which is definately a plus)
Marshall JVM205H (I have tried one but not sure of the quality/durability)
PRS Archon 50 (I like the great clean reviews and description of a tighter rectifier type tone)
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. And yes, I had a 5150 III 50 watt and no, I don't want another one lol.
Would like to keep the price at about 1k used, maybe a little more if I have to.
Thanks!!
