Its a cheap crate amp that really has no power or good tone.  I use a MIM fender telecaster through a DigiTech RP90 and a boss DS1 but I will most likely be getting more FX soon.\r\n-Experience - I\'ve been playing for almost 5 years.  I\'ve played a variety of amps.  Fenders, Peaveys, Marshalls, Line 6\'s, Mesas.  I really would like to play an Orange amp some time soon.\r\n-Personal Research - I want to get a half stack preferably.  I\'d be sweet if it was tubed, but I don\'t know too much about them like if I need to change tubes ever so often and that stuff.\r\n-Shopping - I shop at Guitar Center and Firehouse Guitars.\r\n-Timeline - I\'ll be saving for it, but it isn\'t an urgent thing, just something in like 6 months\r\n\r\nany advice on what to try out, or look at would be sweet.

We\'re starting a business under the name Necropolis Amplifiers.  We have a few questions to pose to the general mass of CGRers, as Eric and my preferences are not exactly in line with the common guitarist\'s. \r\n\r\nWe are working on our design and we came to a few questions we\'d like to pose to you guys.\r\n\r\nAre effects loops a dire necessity in a low wattage amplifier? Would it make or brake an amp for you?\r\n\r\nThe idea of an effects loop is that modulation effects sound better after distortion, however, in this amp you\'re probably going to be getting a lot of power amp distortion if you\'re using a lot of gain, as it it low wattage, effectively making it, from our viewpoint useless. \r\n\r\nSo we have a few options:\r\n\r\n1: Make what was our single ended amp into a push pull amp that would be less gainy on the power side. Thus also making the amp less dynamic. And due to our design, less tonal control.\r\n\r\n2: Leave it out all together. Same dynamic amp with near perfect tonal control. More power amp distortion\r\n\r\n3:  Still have it, between the pre and the power because you want it there. No real tradeoff, it\'s just kinda useless.', '31');
