Awesome limited edition amp!
The output power rating combined with the size of speaker you choose for your amplifier will depend on what you want to use it
for. Beginners will often go for a small practice amplifier which is inexpensive and easy to use, while giving great results in
the practice situation.
Low Power Practice Amplifiers
Practice amps are usually solid state or more recently modelling combo units, featuring low power (10-30 watts) and small
(8" or 10") speakers, although there are some small tube amps to be found.
Loud Combo Amps
For rehearsal and playing smaller venues, it's worth thinking about a valve or modelling combo amps with power ratings averaging
about 50 watts, and 12" speakers for fuller sound. For larger venues or for performing seriously loud, expect power to average at
100 watts and up. You can use "twins," or combo amps that have pairs of 12" speakers, but this is where a separate head and
speaker cabinets (known as a stack) are much more effective.
