    Increase the budget to 7k and go for a Line 6 spider III 15w modelling amplifier.
    It has built in distortion,chorus,reverb,flanger and 25 other effects.

    ANd also it is at par with low end laney amps.

    Its available at bajaao too :D

    divide the 6k for buying an amp and a distortion pedal. that'll solve your prob.

    my suggestion ~ Marshall MG15CD Amp (15 watts) + Digitech Grunge Distortion Pedal.

    should be within 6000 ... might be a lil more.

    it'll come to about 7200.

    mg15 cd is 4800

    digitech grunge is 2400

    @ raj.hendrix ~ if u got the prices from bajaao, be sure that you'll get the same stuff at much lower price if you buy them from outside.
    i think both will cost together somewhere around 6,500 ...

    p.s. the rest depends on your bargaining skills.

    i dont think digitech products are available anywhere in delhi besides bharat(onstage only has dunlop/mxr pedals). bhargavas has a couple of boss pedals for the past 2-3 years haha!

    Bharat was selling a bad monkey for 3500 and bhargavas had only a couple of boss pedals in stock at ridiculous prices. the bad monkey was for 2300 on bajaao. so going by that a grunge should be around 3500 only if our friend is buying from new delhi stores.

    although i cant say tha same for the amp.

    ^you can get marshall 10W within your budget or laney 12W.
    i guess stranger is out of question so have a look at these 2 amps.

    @ angel_of_sin ...

    1 suggestion, buddy ~ in case it's not already decided and nobody can change it, save money and buy a better processor later.

    btw r u thinkin of a zoom 505 or a zoom 505II ???

    ^^whats the availability of pedals like in Kolkata(as compared to bombay...delhi scene is crap anyway)? I'll be going there in July..might pickup something if the stuff is cheap.

    @angel_of_sin: DUDE..seriously! DONT BUY the zoom! save up and buy a good one later.

    @ raj ~ there is this place called Lalbazar in Kolkata where there are n number of music instruments shops ... u'll get all the stuffs you need there ... last dec i bought a zoom g2.1u from there ... and in case you don't get something there, you'll find everything at Braganza, Park Street ... the difference between Mumbai and Kolkata is the price ... it's cheaper in Kolkata (less tax, i guess) ...
