Guitar Amp

By Groedius on 28/05/2008
My sister is starting to learn the Guitar. Shes looking for a good practice amp and to be honest i dont have much ideas on what one to get or which would be good so could any1 recommend some good amps for a beginner and will last for a while. Looking to spend around 200 quid.

Just go to a guitar shop and ask for a starter kit simple as.

RRP's around £200 or a bit more in most shops. It has everything an amp needs, 4 modes including Clean, giving you an amplified Aucoustic sound, then you have shredding settings so when she gets good she can really tear things up. Its an extreme amp, however 30w might be a bit big idk, 15w might be advisable.

Ive got that in 75 watt.

Yes i do play.

Oh, I've seen one equal to yours, but never tried one. I personally have a Fender FM 212R 100W, but I don't know, do you think a Line 6 spider would be better? I don't use it that much though, just for use now and then when I feel to at home tongue.gif

wouldn't really know ive never used a fender amp. Im sure the fender is fine in reality, but the Line 6 is just unbelivably good.

alright i got some tips

first off, if she is just starting its best to start on an acoustic, its cheaper and better to learn with because your fingers getting harder on the tougher strings

if she is determined for an electric or already has one, try buying an amp of ebay, my friend pay $1 for his, and $20 for a really good guitar so ebay is the way to go

other wise, just get a small like 20" max amp, no need to get something to blow your ear drums
