Hello there,
This is my first post so I am sorry if it is redundant or in the wrong area.
I own a Mesa Triple Rectifier 50/150w head, but I am not happy with it. Seems that I just can't dial in a good sound that isn't super 'nu-metal' sounding. Long story short, I have a buddy who is buying it from me for $1K and I am looking into getting a JCM900, as I need an amp with two channels, and I like the dual reverb option. I need the 100 watt version, as we are quite loud and our drummer is a monster.
There's a local guy who is selling a 1990 JCM900 4100 and he's asking $750. But I have also heard good things about the SLX 900's, which I see on Reverb.com for the same price.
Which one should I get?
FWIW, it would be paired with a 16ohm Orange 4x12 cab, which I already own.
Here's a link to my band's album (free) if you'd like to hear the style of music we play. I'd say we're alt rock (a bit on the heavy side).
Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any constructive criticism that you may be able to provide.
