Yeah, its true. That little yamaha thing above, or something like that, Line 6 or Roland, is ample for home. Lots of sounds, tweakable, MP3, headphones, FX -all software, built in. Do they sound a like a valve amp cooking off? At home they can, but with other musicians they dont. They dont have the dynamics, the hand touch, that bottle amps have. Modelling amps, even the good stuff like the AxeFX, isnt quite right. IMHO, YMMV.
I have a very nice hand wired, turret board and all that, 50w amp- and I never turn it on at home, its too loud.
