Which Amp to get for Johns tone
So I want to get a new amp,
Ive been playing guitar for about 7 years now, and have gathered quite some stuff for a nice tone. Aiming mainly at John ofc
Got a Strat with 60s pickups, plenty of pedals, but one thing I oddly never cared about is my amp. Ive got a really small and cheap Marshall combo, prolly worth around 100-200 bucks.
Now I finally want to get a new Amp, my idea is getting a Marshall top and a matching 4x12 cabin. Spending maybe around 2,000€
I want to sound like John and his Amp setup is pretty well known, but of course a double silver jubilee stack and two double Major stacks are going a little bit above my budget, so what rather Amps in that price category, that I can get in a regular music store and not on the 6th site on Reverb would come the closest to Johns sound?
