    Trying to find just the right combo for under $2k

    I was going to suggest the same thing. I just picked up a twin reverb II for dirt cheap. I love the thing. the gain is subtle, but i really like it. The dude selling it said the reverb didn't work. I just wiggled the preamp tubes a big, and boom, reverb worked fine.
