That should pretty much cover all the bases for the standard tones you'll need (although I will admit that some are a bit pricey in that list).

That's a good list but his Boss won't be too happy with the cost....that's almost 10G in amps!

If you were tryin' to get those kinda sounds on the cheap... I myself use:

1. 70's Fender Silver Princeton- Nice warm clean tones great for Country Clean rock
2. Vox Tube Pacemaker-Chimey tone typical of the Beatles AC-30 but not the cost
3. Marshall JCM800 combo- Can get that Marshall rock crunch less $ than head/cab
4. Peavey Delta Blues- Great full tone Blues and Rock amp very versatile
5. Mesa Boogie Bass Buster 200-Well defined Bass sound great for Rock, R & B or Jazz

That list is more like 2G...and your boss won't fire you!
