Blackstar has a lot of different wattage combos at really affordable prices.

Only problem is I don’t think any Canadian stores carry them.

Thank you for the replies and advices =)

Sadly, it is very hard to find variety of amps here... sigh.

The amount of horror stories I've heard about Bugera are enough to keep me away, to be honest.

Honestly I thought the same thing. Until my other guitar played ended up with a 333Xl in a trade for some stuff.

We were both blown away by it. He actually offered to sell it to me for $250 before either of us played thru it. After he fired it up, and I wanted to buy it then, he would not let go of it...

No, I would not buy it new (but I won't buy anthing new) but if I can find a used one I will buy it... It is far better than any of the other "import China" amps out there. Will it last forever...? I doubt it.... But,
I would consider it a great "disposable" amp... You have to play one before you can comment...

It would be nice to know how this amp does for you down the road....

Yes, you are right. I have no idea how long it will last. But for the money, for someone who needs a great sounding amp cheap. You can not beat this amp.
I am not an amp "snob" . Look at my signature and amps. I will still buy one when I run upon another one used.

Just ordered Bugera 333XL for $659.99 Canadian dollars (+5% tax)

Looks like this one has the best price with pretty cool sound (other amps were more than $1k + tax)

Its coming from BC to here in Toronto, now its time for waiting...

I know a lot of people hate Line 6 and solid state in general but my Line 6 Spider Jam is the tits. I paid $225 used on CL, they run for $500 brand new. It has everything you could want in a practice amp, drum tracts, a recorder, tuner, mic jack and headphone jack. 75 watts with a celestion speaker and 2 in tweeter for music playback. Yes you can hook a cd player or mp3 player to it. I'd like to have a nice tube amp but for now this will work.

Line 6 - Spider Jam 75-watt Mono 1x12 Combo Amp

I wouldn't have bought one new, but you will have the warranty with it.
You will love that amp...
