Answer:
wow...took me a while to find the thread since it was moved.
anyhow i have a epiphone les paul special with jb/jazz combo for pickups. im willing to drop up to 200 if necessary (i dont even know the range of what tube amps cost) but id like to spend less if possible because i basically went broke shopping for christmas. i like to play a lot of rock (bands like thrice, taking back sunday, the used, jimmy eat world, etc)
and yeah...yeah i meant 10-15 watts
