I play a Line 6 Flextone - you can get any tone you want out of that baby, from clean jazz tones to wild over driven metal distortion it's all there in one box at the turn of a dial ! It's 60w output but I've never played anywhere close to full on. It's got several good on board FX too. At just under £600 (Sterling) it was a good buy. Thats maybe about $750 US. I don't work for Line 6 but, if you Line 6 guys are reading this you could send me some cash or freebies for the ad. Although in America you tend to pay the the same amount of dollars as we in the UK would pay in pounds sterling, (that's because of our high taxes I believe).
