    Hey guys, I was wondering what a good amp would be for melodic metal stuff like kalmah or bodom. I'd prefer a half stack that would suit this type of music, but any size amp would be fine.I'm open to any brands as long as it get s the job done;) Any suggestions..? :)

          bodom uses marshall but a lot of there tone comes from a shit load of rack stuff so dont bet your money on one amp to get that tr00 b0d0m tone.

          i'd recommend peavey 6505+, Engl powerball (or the special edition if you have the money), soldano, marshall jvm

                      try looking into Bugera amps I hear theyre pretty good 5150 replicas and can be found for around $400.Arch Enemy started out on the 5150's and used them to record burning bridges.

                                  I'm trying to sell my Randall RG 150 G3 half stack right now for pretty cheap. It's in great, like new, condition. I won't be able to ship it though, pick up is a must. So that could be a problem. PM me if you are interested.
