Hello,
I have a Squeal Killer clone, along with a Lone Wolf Harp Break and a Mooer Anna Echo. I also have a Hohner Blaster HB52 and a Laney Cub 10 (HH speaker). I didn't buy the pedals with this amp in mind, and I don't think I'm fully utilizing them. For gigs where the Laney might fall short (it's great for home and rehearsals), what amps would you recommend?

In the budget and highly

In the budget and highly portable category, I like the Fender Champion 40. which would probably work well with your pedals.  I have a 1990's era Fender Bassman Reissue, which is my all-time favorite amp.  

What's the story on your squeal killer clone?

.I previously had a Harley

.I previously had a Harley Benton Tube5, which fed off a lot of sound at home. That's where I bought the Squeal.

I'll take a look at the ones you mentioned.

Thanks for replying.
