re: Good guitar practice combo amp

Good attenuators cost money, but if you can afford it, they’re fantastic. I played on a badass Dr. Z tube amp with an attenuator and it sounded incredible at volumes I could easily sing over unmic’d. However, that was a $3k+ rig.

I think that solid state amps give you the best low-volume sounds on a budget. You can, for about $300, get a pretty good tone at low volumes. I am never making recommendations for top tier gear, but rather for beginners and intermediate hobbyists.
