Hi, I'm in the market for a new amp and since the options are pretty overwhelming, I thought I'd seek some advice. I want something that will give me the right tone for a BB King-style blues, preferably for not more than £150 ($300) as that's about as far as my budget can stretch. In terms of tone I hear that tube amps are the best option, but I'm still relatively new to the technology and the sort of maintenance these things apparently require scares me a little. Any suggestions would be appreciated enormously, thanks.
I think a tube amp would definitely be the way to go for blues.
I'm not sure what the distribution is, but here in Canada I notice Traynor is still making amps, and a friend of mine used to have one that sounded pretty good. I think they're pretty rugged, too.
I don't have exact prices, but I think they're reasonable.

I did a google search and that's what I found out. Maybe you can try these two types of amps for the blues. Do some more research about the two above mentioned amps. I personally use marshall, good for my stlye of guitar playing(heavy metal).
