Blackheart amps

[jclampitt]

I'm just kinda wondering if anyone on here owns or has played any of the blackheart amps, and if so what you thought about them. i'm kinda thinking about getting this one Buy Blackheart BH5H Little Giant 5W 120V Tube Guitar Amp Head | Tube Amp Heads | Musician's Friend 200 bucks is pretty cheap for a tube amp even a five watt one so i'm just wondering how it sounds. Also if anyone knows about any other good small wattage amps that would be good for recording i'd appreciate any suggestions. my 40 watt traynor and fender hrd are just too ridiculously loud, i know five watts would still be loud but it would be nice to be able to turn up an amp and hear some power tube distortion and still be able to be in the same room with it. anyways, any advice would be helpful. thanks

i havent used these amps but typically cheap tube amps or tube preamps are always stocked with crap tubes. you can always replace the tubes with nice ones and it will drastically improve the tone. but it depends on the build of the rest of the amp as to how nice it will be.
