I have a DRIVE CD200B Model 35W amp that I bought strictly for practice. I lucked up and found it for $50 at a pawn shop. Haven't had and real isues with it so far. For the power, that's a good price for 200W. Plus it's on clearance. They must have a problem moving those. If you can try it out, go for it and if it works for you, get it. Make sure it will work for everything you truly intend to do with it.
