If your back ain't breaking, the tone ain't shakin'. Full stack, no slant cabs.
Thanks Derivicus.

Rocker 30 or 32?
Just got back from GC. Here is what I tried.
Orange OR 15
Orange Rocker 30
Marshall DSL 40
Fender Bass Breaker 15
The OR 15 was awesome. It sounded good clean and good dirty.
The Rocker 30 has probably the best dirty channel I’ve ever heard. I hated the clean channel, but to be fair, I was playing a humbucker equipped guitar and getting a good clean humbucker sound has always been challenging for me. I went and grabbed a Tele, but some kid snagged the Orange section by the time I got back. I did get a very useable “clean” tone on the dirty channel with the gain down.
The DSL 40 has a really good clean channel. I usually go for a Fender clean and this is not a Fender clean, but it still sounded awesome. The dirt channel was ridiculous. Way too over the top for me. I started playing some metalish riff and an audience gathered. Some kid asked me to show him how to play what I was playing
Surprisngly, the Bass Breaker 15 was the best all around amp I played. I ran a Tele through it and a humbucker equipped Dano and they both sounded good through all three settings. The dirt was nowhere near as good as the Rocker 30 and the clean was very different from the Marshall. The clean was closer to my F50.
I think im gonna wait for the Marshall Origin amps drop before I buy something. I want to hear that one.
If the Rocker 15 sounds as good as the 30, it is a strong contender just for that dirt channel.
I’m risht with you on the DSL, but the early reports on the new version have the red channel much less ridiculous, so there’s that.
I like the Bassbreaker 15 as well.
Thomann has somehow a shipment of Fender Vaporizer coming in at the beginning of April for 199 on the website.
Gotcha. I was going to say if it was a used 30, grab it. So are you buying a rocker 15?
Idk. I had one on preorder but wasn't willing to wait until April. At first they had them listed for 02Mar. Red and Blue ones are 179€ surf green 199. Listing still stands.What, did Fender find an unshipped stash from deep in a Gibson warehouse?
Woukd be nice if there was a “lost” stash of Excelsiors, too.

That Pedal Show had one in one episode and it sounded very good to me.I think if I were replacing my Mesa with something smaller, the Bassbreaker may be the one.
For your purpose a Micro Terror with a cleaner tube (I use a reissue Tung Sol Au7) and a fairly efficient 1x12 will get you there. The au7 really opens up the headroom but the dirt is still there at higher gain.
If you already own a cab, this solves your problem for under $200.
Yes I know it’s a hybrid, but it works.
Hope it works out. That's an unrealistically good deal if it's not a glitch.Not in the market (for anything yet), but for giggles, I put one in the cart, and got a total of like $220 shipped .
still wonder if this is 1) a MF-style glitch listing, 2) a special deal on unsold old inventory, or 3) Fender is bringing these back.
