    I would be scouring ebay trying to get as much bang for my bucks as possible. Try searching for 'guitar amp' dont use the word practice as it will tend to limit the options.Gumtree is also a good place to buy locally and often has some good deals. If you can up the budget to around £50+ you will end up with something far supperior that will have a longer life span as her playing progresses (assuming she's not already a virtuoso!)

    MakesModels i'd be looking at are Fender Gdec models, Marshall MX, VOX valvetronics, laney and possibly ibanez. Bigger the speaker the better but also being able to carry it will be a major consideration. Some of these models will have built in FX which is a bonus.

     

    good hunting

    I'd spend a few extra quids and look for a vox pathfinder 15r. You can still get them for about £50 if you look.

    I have a battered Line 6 Spider IV 15? Has crappy paint on the knobs and I took the LINE 6 logo off, and made it fully open backed by removing the back panel. If you can collect from Amersham in Bucks, I'll happily take £30 :) i'm out the country and Is_Ser_Fluffehh is currently in possesion of it, so I can get you photos if you like?
