Have been looking for a portable low-power combo that can cover a wide range of material, from vintage cleans to crunchy Marshall-esqe stuff.
I found it in the TA-30.
Channel 1 gets me the cleans with enough headroom to be heard over a drummer, but with enough character that it doesn't sound sterile.
Channel 2 in Hi1 mode gets me close enough to Classic Rock crunch that with my EP Boost I can chug along and have a convincing Marshall crunch.
Not using the Efffects loop at the moment, running my Nova System in front of the amp (with a Duncan Twin Tube for mid-level crunch).
Very impressed with the amp so far. Wish you could switch between the clean and Top Boost modes, but oh well.
Still have the stock tubes in it, but I will be doing some NOS tube swaps to experiment.
Picked up the 1 x 12 extension cab for those times when I need a bit more volume.
