Peavey or Crate preferably. Solidstate is a must. I am fucking through with tubes.

I happen to know a killer amp head if that's what you're looking for. Not a Peavey or Crate. Not nearly as much gain on tap.
But extremely fuckin sick.
They thump and have treble to take your head clean off, and you can really adjust the midrange via the contour knob. You may want an overdrive pedal to really drive it to heavier gain stages.
But it works fine without.
Marshall Valvestate 8100. Old school model. Like Chuck S. from Death played. It does have a single preamp tube, but you can beat the hell out of it. And they are loud as FUCK.
200-300 bucks in good condition.

I dunno. I'm not into the tube sound. I want it to be more maleable with tone. Be able to process it the way I like ya know. I'll look into it. Would I be able to try it out? Used? at the Geecenter?

Nah, there's only one dude in town I know who's got one.
And that'd be me, lol.
And it's very . . . sharp. Trust me. You crank the treble and you will get the nastiest most cutting, ear bleeding fuck you in the face kinda tone. It's not warm and it's not nice. It's rude and in your face.

I like to be able to mold my sound more. Plus, I fucking hate having to worry about breaking the thing.

no i understand man.
i just kinda figured you would like the whitechapel/oceano sound.
which is a peavy 5150/6505 or 5150II/6506+.
run it through a vader cab and you get pure sickness.

Well the buffness i believe is handled by my tuning of choice.
I wanna be able to get a Veil of Maya tone along with the beef.

I seriously need a new amp. Anybody got one they'd be willing to part with? I'm on a budget though. $500 at most.
