I run my 814c and Strat through my Carvin AG100D Acoustic Amp/PA. As my needs are probably similar to yours, I run my Strat through a Line6 POD (v2.0). The POD is a digital amp modeler and you can "dial-in" many of the best electric guitar amps of all time (digitally modeled within the POD; e.g. '65 "Blackface" Fender Twin Reverb), plus download umpteen models created by enthusiasts. Purists don't like modelling amps/devices, but like I said, for my needs (and probably yours) it's great. There are many on this forum using a POD and loving it. I've read that acoustic amps (as opposed to electric guitar amps) serve best with the POD and electric guitars because acoustic amps tend to have a "clean" sound by comparison, allowing the POD models to sound best. A used POD v2.0 can be bought for between $100-200.

Hope this helps.
