Good Amp Recommendations

[Anundr]

After playing guitar for two years on the same amp, it's a Raven RG-20. I think it's time for an upgrade.

Before you start posting about HUGE, expensive amps ($400-600 is expensive for me.) I'd like an amp that is fairly cheap, about $200, and I'd like it to have a nice, bright sound to the OD/Distortion. Kinda similar to what Brendon Small's tone is for his solo album "Brendon Small's Galaktikon".

Marshall Valvestate comes to mind for a cheap bright amp under 400$, there's also the bugera 6262/Peavey 6505+.

I can't really think of anymore but you should also look into a gsp1101, their 400$ and will do any sound you will ever need.

The best thing to do is get something good. Dont buy something just because it's cheap. Down the road you'll be happier if you spend a little extra.
Go used
Marshall 8100/8200
Peavey XXX
Ampeg vh140c
maybe a used Randall

peavey 6505, its a 600$ amp 50w tube and a 1x12

i know this might be at your price rang limit, but looking to get an amp for 200$, your probably gonna be looking at something that's solid state.
there's almost no point for you to buy another solid state amp.

i would consider spending more money, if you want a good metal tone.
