Gathering a few comrades this afternoon to carve pumpkins, and starting tomorrow going thru the end of the week, I'm running sessions for my band to record a bunch of songs for a few different releases. Gonna do 2x guitar and bass tracking while the drummer is on tour with another project, then they'll do drums and noise/synth when they're back. Tons of new gear to play with including an Echoplex preamp, and this week I'm hopefully snagging a 150w Randy Rhodes modded plexi clone to go with a new 4x12 someone is wiring up.

    The Joyo is a great deal from what I've heard

    I was looking at the Peavey Invective MH too if I wanna splurge but the price difference is kinda steep

      The MG amps are good starter amps! That's the series I got started on. Joyo does good stuff, don't know the ins and outs of that particular model.

        It has a Bluetooth input for playing music and backing tracks through and an effects loop and separate EQs for each channel. Sounds pretty great for the price from what I've heard online and the reviews are all pretty good. Peavey make that Invective oohlala amp and a similar less fancy 6505 mini head that seem cool too but they're both pricier. I like that they have built in attenuation settings for going from 20 to 5 or 1 watt though and the Invective is loaded with features.

        ...it's also like $500 resale at the cheapest I could find and I've seen the Joyo for $99

        brrrrrrrrrrrr thonk-cri
