That's right, I might go from 65 transistor watts to 15 fender watts! And well for this,
http://www.musik-produktiv.de/fender-ameri...ed-edition.aspx An all tube fender Blues Junior combo + Ibanez Tubescreamer. I mean, it's all tube, and I think it's loud enough for in the bedroom and stuff, is it? Can I like play small gigs with it when its miced up? Now I'm playing trough a 65 transistor fender amp with my pod...reason for the pod is, to control the volume level, I can't even dial it in to 2! -------------------- Don't just play it. Feel it!

Otherwise I use Marshall JMP 2103, Fender Blues Deluxe, AER 60 (for jazz), GR 3 for recording sometimes and mostly when i practice - no amp at all, cause You can be cheated by a great sound instead of focusing on the core technique. I was thinking of putting lighter string on my acoustic, and practice on that, but it had stayed in "thinking" - like so much else...  //Staffay -------------------- Guitars: Ibanez AM-200, Ibanez GB-10, Fender Stratocaster Classic Player, Warmouth Custom Built, Suhr Classic Strat, Gibson Les Paul Standard 2003, Ibanez steel-string Amps: Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, Marshall JMP 2103, AER 60 Effects: BOSS DD-20, Danelectro Trans.

That fender looks like a cool little amp! It may be loud for bedroom , but you can get the attenuator (to avoid turning up volume too much in search for tone). I think it will serve you well for gigs as long as its miced and there are monitors on stage (for band to hear your playing well).

Congratulations Jesse, nice amp!
 15W is definitely way too loud for the bedroom, you can put it on 5 and it will already be unbearable in some situations. You will get a lot of "Jesse turn it down a little" from your family in the future that's for sure. Tube amp just asks for you to crank it, all the sweetness is when it is cranked. As far as gigging goes, this amp is too weak for most gigs, but not in a sense that it cannot be used for PA. There are couple of other problems. Although amps are usually miced and go to PA, not all clubs have monitoring system, so amp itself serves as a monitor on stage. If they do have monitor system - you can use the amp no problem, just ask the sound tech guy to place the sound of your amp into everyone's monitors including yourself and it will be OK. If the stage doesn't have monitor speakers, you can mic the amp and still play, but then two things will happen: 1. little headroom (you will play the amp cranked and have very little clean sound, most of your playing will be distorted) 2. no sound on stage (amp will be pointed to you, and you will probably hear it a bit, if you raise it up on some stand, but other bandmembers will hardly hear what you play) -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

It will be too loud cranked, you'll need as stomp as you already plan getting.
My AC4 at 4 Watts is too loud. At 1 Watt is also too loud. And what's more, at 0.25 Watts, it's still too loud (makes the windows rattle!). Go figure! -------------------- Guitars:

I played that amp not too long ago when I was searching for a Fender tube amp. It sounds BEAUTIFUL! I went with the Princeton Reverb Recording Amp that had the built in attenuator so I can crank it up for the nice breakup, but turn the attenuator down so it is a bearable volume. You should check it out, you may change your mind!

I had my eye on that one a year ago, I bet it sounds sweet clean & overdrive. Does it crank well with the attenuator? I guess it's an actual wheel you can spin to make it quieter right? Does it take distortion pedals well? -------------------- Guitars:

I have a Carvin Legacy, which is known to be a very very loud 100W. Just the right size for the bed room.
