Although there are a lot of amp/speaker emulators on the market today nothing substitutes for the real thing. My advice to you is save your money till you can afford what you really want. Don't waste it on "toys" if what you really want is the "real deal". I've been workin' my butt off this summer so I can finally complete my rack setup for my guitar, and I'm only a few paychecks away from having it. It took a long time but I already know it's going to be worth my while.
