I think that is the best advice I can give you.

I guess that's true. I have been listening to quite a few new bands lately, and I'm still in the process of discovering all of my "musical bloodline", with Slash, Robin Trower, Richie Blackmore and Mark Tremonti only being a small part of it. It sounds like it would be wiser to discover the whole "musical bloodline" before investing in a large Tube Amp. More so, considering that my current practice-amp is powerful enough for a practice room, and I don't even have the people needed to start my own band, so getting a big amp probably shouldn't be my first priority.

Until those things are in place, I could go try out a few Tube Amps in the stores, just to get an idea about how they sound.
