Which Amp For Blues

Only been playing about three months now, but plan on going out and doing some bar gigs in the next 6 months. I currently own a Keith Urban Night Star electric and the little practice amp that came with it. Within the next year, I plan on purchasing the Epi Les Paul Standard Plus Pro or if I can save up enough the Gibson Les Paul 50's tribute. What is a good amp that I can buy? Limited to in the area of 500.00 at the most. Willing to go look at pawn shops etc. Guitar Center had a Fender Champ XD, a Mustang IV V2, and an FM 210R. I think I'm going with Fender for the amp, but which one. Ya'll can all chime in. Thanks

If you are not in a hurry , try the pawn shops , you can get some good gear at low prices . I got my my Egaater rebel 30 head for $600 Australian and they are worth 2 1/2 times that over here . Not a mark on it , no hisses or buzzes . Plugged it into an old Behringer speaker box until a MESA 1X 12 came up at the same shop for $400 ( normally $1100 here ) So take your time and best of luck

I would go with the Fender mustangs.

Check out a YouTube channel called "In the blues" he's done loads of patches for the mustang that you can download to your own amp.

Thanks, helpful. Will check out the Fenders.

Fender '68 Vibrolux. Love that thing.

Any love here for the Fender Champion 40?
I'm thinking about dumping my Line 6 Spider IV 15.
