Hi ohcarol. I have an Orange Tiny Terror and it is superb if you want to play blues/rock like ACDC. However if you are looking for clean tones then you should look elsewhere. I have a band mate who has the Marshall Haze combo and again that sounds great although I'm not too sold on the digital effects that are incorporated. You should probably have a look at the Fender Blues junior as well.

If you feeling very rich then a Fender 65 Princeton reissue or a 65 Deluxe reverb reissue.

Hope that helps.

I heartily recommend the Fender Pro Junior. 15 watts of love. In my band Daddy, Will Kimbrough and I both use them and have played outdoor festivals with them, running them through the monitors. Will plays most of the leads and does so with a Gibson LP Special and no distortion pedal (though he does use a boost). Also, they're easy to carry, which is very important for an old guy like me.

Well I have just bought the '65 deluxe reverb reissue and it is fantastic! It sounds 3d compared to my Tiny Terror and Fender Super 60. I am so pleased with it.

Agree but the Deluxe reverb reissue is great. Wish I had the money for all of them.
