For home use we find these 1-5 watts are perfect. At times well usually my son he will plug into this mini jubilee at times using 2/12 cabinet.
Yet for the 1 watt heads we use 1/12 cabinets with greenbacks.
Most of the gear and guitars are used purchased over the years.
These basically are the only two pedals I use bought them both used.
First the Nux compliments any single coil guitar.

Second the Ultra Phonix i find it goes well with humbuckers.

To me both pedals just give an added bonus I’ll sit and roll the guitars pots and find tones.
With the Nux it still gives my strat a ancient Greco Se-700 the snap yet warmth
And the Tokai les Paul reborn the ultra phonix the boost it gives the pickups is to my ears like a blanket.
And Iggo I bought both guitars off of a fellow soldier in my rifle platoon in 1985. The dude a fine soldier had an affinity in drinking West German beer and haunting the whorehouses down in Frankfurt.
His vices were my gain I say this out of humor , only if we lived close we could jam together.
The Greco I’ve recently dropped in a friend’s his passion is winding pickups.
And he gave me what he calls his 69 series single coils awesome pickups.
In this Welch Wg-59 it’s a Les clone I dropped his 59 P.A.F. and I ran into this guy other day at the gym and he told me he is trying out different windings for teles.
So he stopped around and picked up my Welch tele to work with different windings.
IGGO just an old guy ramble I’d talk all day on guitar gear and fishing.
Be safe friend in these times we live hopefully it ends soon.
Heading to the gym then the store making Manicotti today.
