Practice/travel amp
Im looking to get a lightweight travel amp (something i could bring to lessons or to a friends house with ease, no more than 35 lbs) that's at least 15W but i would prefer something around 20W and i was wondering which company offers the highest quality one. Obviously i want it to be decently cheap i was thinking around 150$ but im not limited to that and i just want to know what you guys think. The amps i was thinking of were

Acoustic for me, please. 110's are smaller but sound smaller. The 112 in the Acoustic has a bigger sound.

Totally up to the user, (that's you). Decision should be made with your own ears.

Craigslist. New combo amps depreciate horribly.

If it works, and the speakers not shot, $50 is about right.

depends on your needs...if you want big/tone the accoustic sounds like a plan, if price is the deal the pawns are full of 50 buck peaveys and others and if portability/flexibility is an issue,pignose30......i got a peavey micro bass and it's 14"high,9"deep,12.5 across.....it's no tone monster but it works for me

I have a couple peavey micro's that i replaced the 8" speaker's with neo's availible on e-bay for 12.50 plus 5 buck's shipping brand new the guy said he bought them from fender they are 4 ohm's so you will get the full 20 watt's and is a great improvement over the stock speaker,i use the two together fo acoustic gig's sound's sweet with the tone down on the amp's the volume's at about 2 oclock and a tech 21 compator and bass driver in front.the amps cost 25 buck's on e-bay or craigs list.
