60W amp

75W amp



No hunter 75W is not a Tube Amp, you can see it from the price, 75W one is cheaper amp than a 60W Tube one. In Vypyrs only 60W and 120W are Tube Amps, and 15W, 30W, 75W are not. If you have money for it, i would suggest to get the Tube Amp of course - if you can afford it, its expensive. =)

Oh also next time u go, ask Guitar Center to show you a Sanpera Pedal, its a great addition to Vypyr amp. They have Sanpera I and Sanpera II models, here are the links:

If im not mistaken those pedals access effects inside the Vypyr Amp and it makes them switchable by foot so u can do it on the fly while playing. Also i think Sanpera pedals have Loop Effect built in, which is like crazy cool for practice.

Ask them in Guitar Center to show you how it works, you'll love it. :)
