What Amp?

[Antihero666]

Hey everyone, im sure you're all most probably sick of these kinda questions but here goes..

I play in a punk/metal band, and we've just got a drummer in, meaning my little 10 watt silvertone amp just aint gonna cut it anymore

I have an Ibanez EDB700 (absolutely love the thing), and at the moment my price range is about $500-$800 Aus, keep in mind im only 15 years old haha

Ive had a look around on the net and these amps have got my attention..

Ashdown EB15180
Randall RB-200X
Warwick Sweet 15.2
Genz Benz GBE 100115T
And there's also been a few Peavey Mark III and IV heads with some very large 2x15 or 1x15 cabs

Also thought I should mention our guitarist uses a 75 watt Line 6 Spider III
Any help would be great thanks!

get a fender rumble 100w for $600au. as you said you are only 15, so this will certianly do fine. maybe in 5 or 6 years upgrade to a head and cab, but the fender will kill it for now.

I actually forgot about the rumble.. my school has one of those

thanks mate i'll have to check them out too

maybe look into a behringer 450watt head and a 210 or 410 cab(paper cone speakers not the aluminum ones). they're really affordable(especially if you get them used) and fairly reliable.

go used and Grab a Gk combo its louder

Anybody else got an opinion?

the rumble 100 with the 15incher is really sluggish.

 

[Antihero666]

I dunno about sluggish.. ive used the fender rumble at school a fair bit and it didnt seem too bad

although I think i'd rather get something different

anybody know what the line 6 lowdown 150 is like?

it only has a 12 inch speaker so im not too sure
