Im not much of a stack person, i prefer to play combos, just cos they are less hassle. I have a Kustom KBA 100 its 180 watts and i got it from spencers mall in telford for £200 a bargain there from mr george. I t plays beutifully. inbuilt compression and effects.aaah loverly By the way if i was to purchase a resonable stack what do you guys suggest? ?

The only advise is not to go for a name or sumat that you think is popular just TRY things out and buy the amp most suted to your sound!

For a stack Try Behringer, there prices are unbelievabley cheap for studio quality equipment, you can get a 300w head and a 4X10 cab with horn for about £400 brand new. Ryans ideas the best though really

I had a look at the behringer BX3000T 300w amp and was impressed. SMC will do it for £195 and synthsound will do it for about £168. Behringer are also bringing out some new cabs; an aliuminium coned 4x10 will cost around £274 or a 4x10 paper coned cab for £250. There are also 1x15, 2x10 and 8x10s. www.behringer.com/Beware though if your stuff breaks you'll have to send it back to Germany for repair.
