mini Amp

Just got back From Steve's music and was looking for a great sounding miniature amp. Played a tech 21 with a bunch of setting switches ontop? It sounded good, but not sure if it is worth 521 bones, or if I should jsut drop 900 and pick up a line 6 Flexo..something?
Don't know?
Any help?

if you want a great sounding amp for practice or travel, try playing through a pignose. youcan also get a couple of inexpensive pedals for variation and the whole kit will only cost around $200 .
