VintageTone · 11-21-2009, 03:56 AM

hey, i'm looking for a new amp and i have a very small budget, im looking for an indie/rock/punk sound i:e kooks, libertines, clash, i need this amp for small gigs and practice, my 30watt MG is perfect volume for what i need it for, just had it for way too long and bored of it. i have found a bugera v22 which looks nice, in my price range, heard some good things about it, and some bad. and a lanley vc30, surposed to sound like a vox ac30?... so can anyone here help me? thanks VT

Hi,

You can still get good deals if you ar ewilling to wait. I found a JCM900 SL-X c/w with 4x12 for 150 quid.
The Laneys are great amps. I would say they are a little more versitale than a AC30.
Look in the local rags rather than ebay etc.

Laney all day long. I have a lionheart piggyback. But try a blackheart little giant. AWesome amp, loud enough for small gigs and practices and solid amp.
