Fender Rumble? Peavey TKO? SWR WorkingMan?

Always buy used, unless if you're absolutely sure about keeping it.

There are sooooo many options out there, that simply asking such a generic question is somewhat impossible to answer. Sort of like asking, "hey, what car should I buy?".

Question #1, to narrow down the field... how much $ are you willing to spend? What do you consider "reasonably priced"?

buy used. that way you don't take the financial hit if you re-sell.

A great starter amp is the Ampeg BA-115. 100 watts and sounds pretty good. Will be great for small gigs, rehearsal, practice, etc...as long as the guitar players don't crank or the drummer is very loud
