When I played the class 5 I wasn't overly impressed with it. To be fair, it was the first gen and had a really puny speaker.

My bad, Mark, sorry. Yeah, the combo is $499 - A Sweetwater ad for $250 popped up when I was retrieving the YouTube demo, but indeed, that's for the cab, not the combo.

And here's one in the Chicago CL.

Thumbs up Wampler pedal solutions for you.

I have both of these pedals and they are sMoKiN!

The Plextorion is a JCM 800 in a box
The Plexidrive is a JTM 45 & a Marshall 18 in a box.

Well thanks for all the suggestions, but I did take jomaynor's (and leeasam) advice and got the Class 5. I actually got the very one in the CL ad jomaynor listed for me. It turned out to be a special edition in cream, and I got a very good deal on it.

HeimBrent-You are correct. It sounds great, and is EXTREMELY loud for 5 watts. It is a class A after all.

BTW-joecharter, that Carr is sweet. I think I'll let him save up for his next level of amp!

So a big thanks to jomaynor for all the help!

Congrats!

Your son must be very happy. The cream version is very nice.

This story reminds me of the Marshall 8080 that my dad bought me when I was a teenager...

Oh there's no ending, really...

I still play the guitar after all these years and I still remember the day I went to the store with my dad to get the amp -- so my point is that you've done something really cool that your son will remember for a long time.
