What's The Popular (Relatively Inexpensive) Combo Amp These Days?
It seems that the Boss Katana was (is?) very popular. Anything else?

There are only two options as I see it.
Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.

I haven't seen anything new that kicked the KATANA out of 1st place. I started using the Tonex pedal last year and just a few days ago got its matching cabinet. That's just under 1k in expenses. The KATANA is hard to beat for general purposes and cost.

Line 6 Catalyst
I borrowed one of these awhile back to practice with a group and I was really impressed. It also comes in 60 and 200w I believe.

Quilter's TT12 is hugely popular for a reason

The Quilter is a bit pricy and frankly I don't like my 202 Quilter and plan on selling it. In all fairness I don't have the Quilter cabinet but I do have several size cabs with Tt 12 speakers and several with Peavey black widows. The Quilter doesn't do justice to any of them for my taste. The TC Electronics BQ500 has better tone and controls and It sounds good with an added reverb pedal and cabinet. Your mileage may vary and you might like the Quilter as many other do. A good used Peavey Nashville 112 is a great amp and widely used by many pro players.
