WTB - Birthday present amp around £150 available

Hello all, 

I would let to get the father in law a half decent amp and rid him of his Peavey Vyper.

Has anyone got anything kicking about they are looking to move on?

Only requirement is a good clean channel. Its a plus if it doesn't weigh more than the moon/Vanessa Feltz
The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    the latest Vyper s got fantastic reviews
    never played one myself but hard to better for £150
    look out for Fender Superchamp x2 -superb clean channel for a little cheap amp and some digital fun on the other channel which actually isn t so bad - upgrade one day with a ragin cajun 10 " speaker and its a cracking little tool
    I have got a wharfedale tct 35 for sale -would take £160 at the death -6l6 Marshall  type of thing -good reverb clean for the money but bloody heavy little thing
    its somewhere in the amp classifieds

    I think you can probably get a good Laney at that price, maybe a VC15 if you are patient.

    Hughes & Kettner Attax 80.  100w of Teutonic efficiency in a robust little package of tone. 

    It's in Electro Music in Doncaster for auditioning purposes.

    Very cheap and very reliable.
