At this moment i think is more difficult to buy a decent cheap amp for my Rhodes than restoring my 73 MK1!
I keep reading a lot about this matter and still no conclusion!
The important thing is to choose one amp that is good for Rhodes at low volume, is only to use in apartment... i read that many good amps don´t give that sound when played in low volumes, only when you push from them... louder!
I read some good experiences about the Laney VC30 and the Rhodes... but the 30Watts amp is to much power for my needs, i´m looking to 15W amps.
I never read any experience <bout the Laney Cub 12R, only in guitar forums, and everybody says is a very good amp and cheap even vs Fender Blues Junior and Vox AC15.
The Laney cub 12R looks a great choice and is 15 Watts and has the option to 1 Watt option!
Is all tube, 2 x EL84 output Valves and 3 x ECC83 Preamp Valves with 1 x12" H|H speaker.
There is also the option to buy the Laney cub 12R head and the cabinet with 2x12"... in this option the sound and basses could be much more better i think.
Other consideration is the Fender super champ X2, but i read it has clean tones but don´t has a lot of bass... is 1x10"
The Vox AC15VR is other "budget" choice but is not all tube like the others is a hybrid amp... and i have a friend with an 88 mk2 who don´t like very much the Rhodes with the Vox´s amps...
Anyone knows if the Harley Benton VT-30 BK is also a good amp for Rhodes? Is all-valve combo, 30W, 1x 12" Celestion Vintage 30, Ruby Tubes 3x 12AX7, 4x EL84 and very good price.
Used amps i think is out of question, here in Portugal is very difficult to buy and all overpriced and through ebay the postages and taxes are huge!
Any comments please!
