Maybe an old Traynor?

Re: Need some amp suggestions
I was also going to suggest an old traynor. I see them quite frequently and they are often good deals. I checked Swedish equivalent of craigslist and found three 40watt 112 combos for 350€ each. Although a bit more rare lately, you can still find killer deals on music man amps. Maybe not the most portable one, but my friend got a 410 combo (can't remember the model, but it was tube) for 200€.

I have always kept an eye out for Traynors but the right one has never surfaced. I've got a Laney coming my way now so I'll see how I get on with that.

I have a concord, It's cheap, loud and awesome. Can't carry it very far with one hand, it's got side handles for a reason.The Mad Titan wrote:Well, if you're pretty buff you could tote a Sound City Concord with one hand.

Re: Need some amp suggestions
Even before I got crippled up, I put casters on *every* touring/gigging amp I had. I came within inches of putting them on my Space Echoes.

Re: Need some amp suggestions
I thought I should update this thread, as I've FINALLY got something that suits my needs for now.
The Laney I ordered did arrive... completely fucked up. The guy hadn't boxed it up well and the couriers had abused it. The hunt continued. Until I was hospitalised for 2 months and spent even longer recovering.
Anyway, on Saturday I acquired an Orange Dual Terror with a cool and weird open cab with two Celestion g10s-50 speakers. I've not played it very long (not fed it any fuzz yet) but it's a small (if awkward) setup that looks amazing (the cab is red-on-white paisley covered with a fender badge on a wheat grill) and should have enough power for me.
