To follow up once more, I did get an amp, and everyone's going to laugh at me. I found a really cheap Crate Blue Voodoo BV-50h and I bought it. I've read about the "terrible" highs and all that, but I also found a place that lists some mods that can take care of things like that. To go with...

I absolutely understand your point of view and I'm sure the manager probably thought the same thing. You do suggest things that I did, though. The amps that they carry aren't ones I am familiar with. The ones I did know about were the Epiphone Valve Jr. and the Peavey XXX. They used to have...
