SWR combo's

Looking for a low, but still mid heavy tone. I like reggae tones a lot. However, I play in a country band.
Sounds like you might be looking for a 115 combo like the older Workingman's 15. They are not expensive to find used and any of the older pre fender SWR gear is well thought of. I owned the Workingman's 12 combo for years and it was a great little amp. These amps don't have a lot of power but sound great at moderate levels.
The SWR Basic Black was a classic as well but they are hard to come by. A Red Head or Super Red Head would be great if you like the 210 speaker configuration. These are fairly heavy and a bit under powered compared to modern offerings.
For playing reggae through a combo amp, hands down your best best would be a Mesa Walkabout/Scout 15. Last amp you would ever need!
