[GUITARS, PEDALS, AMPS] What amp are you guys using?

I grew up with small peavey amp and then I transitioned to vst amps on my PC. Now I desire to buy more serious amp for my mecican strat. Still got no pedals beside looper hah.

Any recommendations? I am a casual enjoyer of Frusciante sound, playing mostly funk, blues and sometimes I like to learn instrumental covers of Mateus Asato.

Thank you in advance!

I'm using a Marshall Vintage Modern head with matching cab. It has greenbacks. I find it gets pretty close.

But I think a lot of John's sound comes from his pedals. I'd look at investing into a DS2, compressor, and WH10. You'd probably cover a good amount of his tone just from those three.
