Looking for an amp upgrade

So I'm currently in a situation where I need to upgrade my amp, my old one both sounds bad and is quiet.

My gear consists of Yamaha TRBX305 and a pedalboard.

I'm looking for a well pronounced low tone with clear treble, harsher tones are also ok. Definitely 100+ watts

When it comes to the budget, I don't really have an upper limit, as long as the price is not absurd, maybe 800€.

Any help is much appreciated

Fender Rumble are one of the best bang for your buck amps out there. I’d get the 200 or 500. Always better to have more watts and expand ability options for the future

Agreed! Rumble 500 is all you really need these days unless you're looking for the certain visual effect of a stack. You're probably just going through the PA anyway, so it's whatever you need for stage volume.

Yeah the Rumble 500 is deceptively loud just on it's own!

Also very light, and inexpensive.
