Hey, I am looking for a tube amp head, preferably not some huge name brand, but I am looking to maybe venture into some small homemade brands...And I don't mean boutique, I just mean small brands with good tones...

I'm not sure what I want as far as wattage, somewhere between 20 and 60 I guess...I don't want it to break up early, and I don't want it to be on 10 to sound good...

The sound I want? Smooth...Jazz and jam.

No channel switching needed, one channel (obviously clean) is fine...I also want reverb...I am not a knob twiddler, so all I want is basically:
volume, tone, reverb, on/off, and an output jack...

The cab I have is an Avatar 212 (V30/G12H30)...

I don't know what to go for as far as price, obviously the cheaper the better, maybe around $400.

Here is a builder who seems cool, and his PRICE may fit the bill:

What do you guys think?

hey dont mean to sound like a dolt but is that a matchless copy?

i know someone that had a matchless clubman (right name??) copy and it was nice, great clean jangly sound...

maybe a deluxe reverb reissue??
i think seafoamer was selling one at a great value.

Well I already have a Hot Rode Deluxe, so i dont want another fender type amp...

Sounds like you need to talk to Scott F. Celtic Amps. He can probably help you out.

Will do, thanks ErikH. any other ideas?

Im looking for lots of headroom, and no gain or overdrive channel is fine!

Someone said that the new Traynors (6L6 AND EL-34 versions) are going to be available as heads this coming year. Maybe check those out when they're available.

Peavey Classic 50 and 100 heads with EL-84's are pretty cool for low dollars too.

Fender Twins are supposed to be really clean and really loud...early break-up won't be a problem.

thanks for the replies men! keep em coming...that traynor idea sounds muy sexy...IN GENERAL, what are the sound differences in 6l6 vs. el34 vs. el84??...thanks!

I have a Traynor for sale!!!!!!

is it a combo or a head theodie?

Sorry bro, I didnt see the part where you were looking for a head. It is in fact a combo!

and also, does anyone know when the traynor heads will be out, and about how much they will cost?
