Hmm.
It should be in the $200-$250 range at City music. Not sure of the exact cost.. go to the webby lah :wink:
Punk rock is fine with this amp, but in my experience with practise amps, it's definitely worth it to get an EQ pedal and perhaps a distortion box to push the amp (for solos, etc) because despite its "bluesy-ness" it still lacks the bottom end oomph that bigger amps can deliver (duh!), but with an EQ pedal i got that oomph.
Do you have a budget for amps, and are these two the only choice of amps you have narrowed down?
