Tubes Fender Amps

So tube amps have to be turned up to sound good.?

I am about to sell my Line 6 spider amp for a Fender Duluxe VM tube amp. I don't like the emulation sound of my amp at the moment and really want to get that over driven tube tone for classic rock. However i am moving to uni in under a year, so having a solid state amp my be a good idea as it has the same tone at low volumes that it has at max.

Well my only experience with tube amps is where I take my guitar lessons, and they certainly do have a great sound. The walls in the room are soundproofed, so we can go as loud as the amps can stand. While almost ANYTHING sounds better louder, tube amps do get that crisp feel once you reach a higher volume, for the very reason you said, and while this is definitely optimal you can turn the amp on twenty minutes or so before you play and it'll tend to heat up, allowing you to play with a pretty low volume.

It's really a decision that you're going to have to make. Consider getting the tube amp, but just taking a high quality 15 watt with you. The better of these typically starter models can actually get impressively loud. Good luck with the decision anyway, and have a good time at U.
