Having got rid of my 5150 head and marshall cab, I shall be embrking on getting a new practice amp in the new year.

My buddy has just ordered an orange rocker 30 head which inspired me to look at they're small practice amps.

It needs to be small with a tidy clean sound but that can handle 5150 style distortion as well.

What do y'all reccomend?

try and find a 'Park' amp, anything between 10 and 50W, they're fucking good, really nice distortion. They're made by Marshall, but are better than any Marshall equivalent... plus a lot cheaper to pick up cos they ain't branded Marshall

I never heard of that before but i'll put the research in thanks.

Did marshall also do a line of heads called Red Bear (or something i know it sounds silly)? I used one of these in a rehearsal room years ago and remember it sounding wicked.

not sure about that mate!

I got a Park amp, says 'designed by Marshall Amplification' on the back, and 'Park... a division of Marshall amplification' on the front, it says it's a 10W, but the speaker says 15W on it haha... but yeah, it's got 2 gain controls, an EQ, reverb, and the gain is pretty phat, pretty versatile tone aswell for a tiny amp that should be shit!!!!

also, I've had it for years, and never had any probs with it... plus it only cost like £5 at a carboot sale!!!!!

Buy a Randall from my shop.

this isn' going to be easy.

wheres your shop lev is it in the furthest reaches of the world? haha

Sure is. Well, on the other side of the country anyway. The 35W Randall amps are sexy fit. Take my word for it and receive free postage!


Or try it in another shop then buy it from me.



Buy MY THIJNGSSS

Do these have the same technology as the PODxt? I'm using this through the computer at the moment.

There was a Peavey something or other that Calum from Amok had and it was crunchy as fuck.

I'm not too sure. I know that they're all digital amps, so I'm guessing that they work the same as PODs. Don't blame me if it blows your computer up though! haha

Also available in 25 and 35w.

damnit always tempted to buy bigger. i'm gonns try these randalls out after christmas.

The 35w is by far the best out of the four. 15w just doesn't have enough, 25 is decent and the 35 sounds awesome. The 75 is a good amp but it loses the raw sound that the 35 has.

do you have any more of these 25/35's i need a praccy combo amp ASAP!
